The Warsaw Pact, established in 1955, was a military alliance of Eastern Bloc countries led by the Soviet Union in response to NATO. Its primary function was to ensure mutual defense among member states against perceived threats from the West, particularly during the Cold War. The Pact also served to strengthen the political and military cohesion of communist countries in Europe, consolidating Soviet influence in the region. It effectively provided a framework for military cooperation and coordination among member nations until its dissolution in 1991.
The U.S.-led "Western World" and the U.S.S.R-led "Communist World" were the two major power blocs that emerged after the war.
