U.S.S.R. {| |- | The rival was the Soviet Union. It began as the US and Soviets divided up responsibility for policing the defeated Axis countries. It escalated when the Soviets developed nuclear weapons. |}
The Soviet Union started the cold war. It had two purposes. It served to keep its own population willing to live in poverty and it kept liberals in the West at odds with their own governments. After Western Europe had recovered from World War 2, there was never much real danger of an attack against the west. The stores in the west had so much more merchandise than those in the Soviet Union that the solders would have stopped at the first village and spent their time looting.
The United States and the USSR were the two main countries in the Cold War

A large majority of the cold war was fought in other countries land-but the main conflict was between Russia and the USA. The Cold War was made up of proxy wars, in Korea, Vietnam, and Afghanistan. Although I do not know the death toll, it was very, very bloody.
A Buffer State is a country that is neutral but sits between two countries with conflict. During the Cold War The US and the Union of Soviet were in turmoil but the Soviets would have to cross into Canadian air space to get to the US. Therefore making Canada the Buffer.
No, wars are not a good way to end conflict between two countries or individual. Wars bring destruction and nothing else. It results in the loss of resources as well as lives. Wars are not the solution of any conflict. Mutual understanding and conversation are the basis of better results for any conflict. Wars bring down the economic conditions of the country as well. Throughout the history, no war has ever ended a conflict. One war has either led to another war or cold war or war-like circumstances. So wars are not at all a good way to end conflicts between countries or individuals. Gandhi won a war without even fighting one.
