Cold War

A major cause for failure of disarmament was that countries were not allowed to reduce their military strength in parity with others. For example, the agreement between Britain, USA and Japan proposed a ration of 10-10-7 to which Japan later disagreed.

Many people give credit to Ronald Reagan, when he climbed up on the Berlin Wall and personally kicked it down brick by brick while under fire from the East German Stasi. Though Pope John Paul II and Ronald Reagan will be remembered as the pope and the president who defeated Communism, the exact nature of their relationship has remained elusive. The documentary record is incomplete, but clues to the answer may be found in formerly top-secret National Security Council files, now available at the Ronald Reagan Library in Simi Valley, California. These materials reveal, often in granular detail, how the U.S. Vatican relationship evolved during Reagan's first term. The documents describe the first contacts between the pope and the president; nuclear brinksmanship and disarmament; the Solidarity crisis in Poland; and Vice President George Bush's private 1984 meeting with the pope.

Fear mongering, exagerated claims, unsubstantiated claims, character assasination, anti-communist rhetoric,

The major reason it affected so many people was the propoganda machine. They scared the crap out of the American people. The cold war also brought upon the fear of nuclear weapons being used to blow up the United States of America or even the world. A nuclear holocaust. There was a general fear of communism created by propoganda which effected Americans through all aspects of media: radio, news, movies, cartoons, etc. you name it, and the anti-communism sentiment was included in all media outlets.

I'll add that this was NOT simply an American problem. Nuclear war would have killed the entire planet eventually. That tends to get EVERYBODY'S attention, worldwide.

By making the united states once again go through another "witch hunt" and showing that we were a nation growing paranoid of communism and socialism.. combined with all the factors of arms races, nuclear fears of war..

In 1999 NATO bombed Serbia and Montenegro two republics of former Yugoslavia that kep its name.

Reagan was out of office when the cold war ended in 1989. As a former president he wrote a book, paid visits to other former leaders, and fought Alzheimer's. He died of the disease not remembering who he was or what he had done in his life. To answer your question he really didn't work with anyone.

It created the first controlled nuclear reaction, as well as nuclear weapons.

The rural wall

The Berlin Wall

i dont know because i asked u

Because of China's communist government and their subsequent role in the cold war. They were a threat because communism was spreading in Asia (Vietnam, North Korea, China) and communism was the main reason the US was in the cold war. Plus, China was a good source of trade

It was one of the three main goals of Détente

The Iron Curtain.

Although it's pretty easy to bypass, Bahrain has very strict laws over the Internet.

Ideas from the Soviet Union.

"For the first living creatures in space, US launched dogs into the captured V-2 rockets in 1946. The Russians were the first ones to launch living beings on their own. They launched a dog in 1957 in Sputnik 2 but technology did not exist to retrieve it so it died. They launched two more dogs later on in 1960 who orbited the Earth and returned. The Russians also sent turtles to fly around the moon in Zond 5 in 1968. The Russians also sent the first human in space who was Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin in 1961 on Vostok 1 in 1962. The first dual-manned mission was also Russian and the first woman in space was also Russian. The Russians beat us to a launch with a multiple-personnel crew which did not have to wear space suits. The Russians also did the first space walk in 1965. The Russians were the first to reach the vicinity of the moon in 1959 and also to land a probe on the moon later in 1959. So as you can see, the Russians clearly kicked our behind in the Space Race. The only exception is Neil Armstrong landing on the moon first but that only happened because of USSR officially announcing that they were not concerned with putting a man on the moon." What the US did was create an arbitrary goal (putting man on the moon) AFTER they won it so they could feel good. They lost all the other "races", such as putting the first satellite in space, along with everything else mentioned above. The Russians DID win the "space race". But nothing would really change if the US won. The Yahoo!Answers information is misleading at best. The U.S. never launched dogs into space. http://www.onpedia.com/encyclopedia/Animals-in-space The first dual-manned mission was also Russian and the first woman in space was also Russian - publicity stunts with no planned follow-up. The Russians may have beat us to a launch with a multiple-personnel crew which did not have to wear space suits with Voskhod 1 but it was little more than a dangerous attempt to upstage the United States' upcoming two-seat Gemini missions. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voskhod_1 The Russians also did the first space walk in 1965 in an attempt yet again to upstage publicly announced US plans but nearly ended in disaster when Leonov found himself unable to re-enter the Voskhod 2 spacecraft due to a hurriedly and poorly designed suit. http://www.astronautix.com/flights/voskhod2.htm The Russians were the first to reach the vicinity of the moon in 1959 but did not successfully land a probe there until January 1966. http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/lunar/lunarussr.html The Vosktok program was technological dead-end in which the cosmonauts had to eject and parachute to earth before the spacecraft landed. Voskhod was an adapted Vosktok without an ejection seat that crammed three and then two cosmonauts with an inflatable airlock that was a deathtrap waiting to happen - a stopgap until the Soyuz could fly. The first Soyuz caught up with the Soviets and ended in the death of its pilot. http://space.about.com/cs/deceasedcosmonaut/a/soyuz1crash.htm The Russians clearly did not kick our behind in the Space Race. The USSR only officially announced that they were not concerned with putting a man on the moon after their N-1 booster failed repeatedly. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N1_rocket

The Berlin airlift took place after the soviet union were fed up with western influence in East Germany. The Russian response was the cut off, all road and rail connection into Berlin, to prevent the allies (England, France, United States) from supplying their sectors of berlin.

The Vietnam war was a product of the rivalry between the US and the Soviet Union. It was part of the reasoning behind the construction of NATO and SEATO, both of which were created in fear of spreading communism ideals.

Well accually it was crying when everyone died.

For a few years after World War 2, the Americans had nuclear weapons, and the Soviets did not. It was agreed before the war ended that the Soviets would administer Eastern Europe, and it was hoped that these countries would be given their freedom, but the Soviet acquirement of the nuclear secret changed everything.
