In 1949, NATO (the North Atlantic Treaty Organization) was established as a military alliance in response to the growing threat of Soviet expansion in Europe after World War II. Its primary role was to provide collective defense, meaning that an attack on one member would be considered an attack on all, thereby deterring aggression from the Soviet Union. NATO aimed to promote stability and security in the North Atlantic region and to strengthen political and military ties among its member nations. This alliance marked a significant shift in international relations, solidifying the divide between Western democracies and the Eastern bloc.
