A Cold War differs from a conventional war primarily in that it does not involve direct military conflict between opposing nations but rather a prolonged period of political tension, ideological rivalry, and economic competition. During a Cold War, countries often engage in proxy wars, espionage, and Propaganda while avoiding direct military engagement to prevent escalation into a full-scale war. The Cold War is characterized by the struggle for influence and power, particularly between superpowers, rather than battles over territory or resources typical of conventional wars.
They would either back down, as during the Cuban Missile Crisis; or fight a limited war (Limited to conventional weapons) such as the Korean War and the Vietnam War.
A limited war used in the context of the cold war meant LIMITED to conventional weapons only. To do otherwise meant total war, verses limited war. Total war would include the use of nuclear weapons. Such as WW2 (the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki). The Korean War (1950-1953) and the Vietnam War (1961-1975) were the first and only limited wars fought during the cold war. Cold War meaning between the communists and free world.

World War Two was an origin of the Cold War.
The Cold War resulted from lack of trust between the U.S and The Soviet Union.
The Cold War arose from the Atom Bomb. It was nuclear weapons that created a military stand-off between the USSR & the US. Otherwise, it would have been a regular conventional war. Cold War=No War

Proxy war Phony war.
Nuclear weapons led to the cold war. Noting else. No nukes, no cold war. If nuclear weapons did not exist, the US and USSR may have fought a regular conventional war, just like WW2...only it would have been called WW3. Nuclear weapons led to the cold war. Noting else.

DDT and the Cold War were two different issues.

One didn't declare war back in those days (the cold war days) because "declaring war implied TOTAL WAR!" Total war implied nukes! Thus the limited wars of the cold war period. (Limited to conventional weapons only).
the cold war is the complete opposite of a hot war. its when you don't physically fight but you fight in a different way e.g campaigning strikes etc.
From guerrilla war to conventional war.
Cold War=No War Hot War=Shooting War (Men dying) Warm War=Almost shooting, but no one's pulling the triggers...yet!
