In 1960 the "space race" began between the US and Soviets. Both worked to get to the moon first and in 1969 the US landed on the moon. The Soviets never have landed.

A lot of people will tell you it was The Bomb. As a Cold War cryptologist, my vote is for the R-390A/URR radio receiver, used for decades by American intelligence to monitor the Soviets.

What effect did the D-Day have on World War 2?
It sped things up in Europe; it was really a race between the Soviets (Russians) and the Western Allies, on who could beat whom into Berlin first.

Had the US/British not reached Berlin when they did, the Soviets (Russians) would have taken over ALL of Berlin, instead of just EAST Berlin.
How was the Soviets war in Afghanistan like the US war in Vietnam?
The Soviets (Russians) called it their Vietnam because it was long and they didn't do too well. But it was entirely different: 1. The Soviets were not fighting another country. They were fighting insurgents. If the US had just been fighting the VC during the Vietnam War then there would be a more appropiate comparison. However, the US ended up fighting (via the Tonkin Gulf Incident) North Vietnam; that was the North Vietnamese Army. 2. The Soviets were not fighting an enemy air force. The US had to fight the North Vietnamese Air Force which was equipped with Soviet/Chicom (Chinese Communist) MiG17, MiG19, and MiG21s (the MiG21s were supplied only by the USSR). 3. The Soviets were not fighting an enemy navy. The US had to fight the North Vietnamese Navy; their torpedo boats started the Tonkin Gulf Incident. 4. The Soviets were not fighting the an enemy army. The US had to deal with the NVA (North Viet Army). They had PT76 light tanks and T54 medium tanks.
