Those are all towns and were the scene of meetings between the leaders of the Allied nations during WWII. Churchill of the United Kingdom, Stalin of the Soviet Union, and Roosevelt and later Truman of the US. Tehran is the capital of Iran, handy for Stalin to get to. Yalta is in Russia, in the Crimea on the Black Sea. Potsdam is a suburb of Berlin, Germany, and Truman went to that meeting held after Germany had surrendered. Yalta was earlier in 1945, and the last one attended by Roosevelt, who was a very sick man at the time - he died three months later.
All these meetings were to decide what the next Allied steps would be, and to try to coordinate actions against the Axis powers, and foster cooperation.
Potsdam , Tehran and Yalta conferences .
Yalta came first
The Tehran, Yalta, and Potsdam conferences demonstrated the shifting alliances and geopolitical dynamics during and after World War II. These conferences showcased the cooperation and negotiations between the Allied leaders to discuss the post-war settlement, the division of Germany, and the establishment of the United Nations. They also illustrated the emerging tension and ideological differences between the Western powers and the Soviet Union, setting the stage for the Cold War.
Similarities were that they were both about what to do after the war

Yalta came first
The three leaders who met at Tehran, Yalta, and Potsdam to determine the outcome of World War II were Franklin D. Roosevelt, the President of the United States; Winston Churchill, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom; and Joseph Stalin, the Premier of the Soviet Union. These conferences were crucial in shaping post-war Europe and addressing issues related to the war's conclusion and the reconstruction of nations.
The meetings at Yalta and Potsdam were more focused on the post-war order and the reorganization of Europe after World War II. Unlike the earlier Casablanca and Tehran conferences, which primarily addressed military strategies and coordination against the Axis powers, Yalta and Potsdam dealt with the establishment of political boundaries, the fate of Germany, and the formation of international bodies like the United Nations. These later conferences reflected a shift from wartime collaboration to the complexities of peacemaking and geopolitical power dynamics.
