If the detention at your school is anything like my old schools. It's silent, and torture! You had to face front, no talking,and no note writing. You could do homework only.

Under Tito, Yugoslavia was semi-independent.

The BASIC difference is "Group" verses "Individual" styles of living. In a communist environment the government knows YOUR business, for the safety of the "Group"; in a free country/capitalistic country; the government must respect the privacy of it's citizens to allow them to retain their "individuality." Some extreme examples: 1. If a person drowns in a communist nation, for the safety of the people; the beach is closed down. In a free country the beach remains open (with the exception of out of the ordinary cases), the individual who drowned took his own chances; he made a choice. Freedom of choice. 2. If a skydiver dies from an accident in a communist nation, the government stops all skydiving for the safety of the people. In a Free country individuals continue to skydive; they have made their own decisions whether or not to continue the sport. ALL Activities can continue from there; Car Racing, Scuba Diving, Surfing, Airplane Racing (Reno Air Races), Bull Fighting, etc.

During the Cold War, the 'Iron Curtain' was important for a wide variety of reasons. From the Soviet Bloc perspective, one might describe its importance in terms of security: it kept out foreign infiltrators while ensuring that no one would leave home-territory without proper clearance. For the West, its importance may best be described as symbolic: it represented the difference between 'free' and 'communist' societies in a stark, generally undeniable way.

Deathly afraid, terrified.

They threatened each other with Nuclear War.

The United States, Great Britain, the Soviet Union, and, eventually France. In which they were to accept the surrender of Nazi forces and restore order. This would stand as a bulwark against Soviet expansion into Western Europe. On June 22, 1948, negotiations between the Soviets, Americans, and British broke down.

From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic, an iron curtain has descended across the Continent. Behind that line lie all the capitals of the ancient states of Central and Eastern Europe. Warsaw, Berlin, Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Belgrade, Bucharest and Sofia, all these famous cities and the populations around them lie in what I must call the Soviet sphere, and all are subject in one form or another, not only to Soviet influence but to a very high and, in many cases, increasing measure of control from Moscow.

-Winston Churchill

Quite simply, the iron curtain was symbolic to the separation between Communism and Democracy.

Technically, they would've been nonaligned, though many of these "nonaligned" countries actually were aligned; they just weren't formally part of NATO or the Warsaw Pact. "Third World" came about as a term for countries which were not members of the two major military alliances (NATO and the Warsaw Pact).

Yes and No you have to go threw so much paperwork and even then it might take years also you have to have an invite from someone in another country and in the end you most likely will not be able to meet the obligations to leave or the Cuban authority's may just say NO! If your a professional they will make it even harder for you to leave because they don't want to lose you.

So for people who just say yes you can leave freely they are wrong.

Ask the people who float to Florida on rafts if they are allowed to leave freely.
