The Bay of Pigs Invasion (known as La Batalla de Girón, or Playa Girón in Cuba), was an unsuccessful attempt by a CIA-trained force of Cuban exiles to invade southern Cuba with support from US government armed forces, to overthrow the Cuban government of Fidel Castro. The Invasion was launched April 17, 1961. (Wikipedia) The Cuban Missile Crisis was a confrontation between the United States, the Soviet Union, and Cuba in October 1962, during the Cold War. It was an effort of the United states to prevent Russia from delivering missiles to Cuba, which would be a direct threat to the national security of the United States.


How did the Cuban missile crisis bring the world to the brnk edge of war?

The Cuban Missile Crisis brought the world to the brink of war because the United States stated that they would use any means to stop the USSR from bringing missiles to Cuba. The USSR was just as determined to take the missiles to Cuba. This led to a tense stand off between the two countries. Had the USSR not backed down, the two countries would have gone to war and their allies would have been pulled into the conflict.
