Cold War

The Cold War was a prolonged period of geopolitical tension and ideological conflict that lasted from the late 1940s until the early 1990s, primarily between the United States and the Soviet Union. It was characterized by competition in military power, economic systems, and political influence, without direct large-scale fighting between the two superpowers. Instead, it involved proxy wars, espionage, and a nuclear arms race, shaping global alliances and conflicts. The Cold War ended with the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991.

A communist country is one where the government owns and controls means of production, and aims to achieve equality through redistribution of wealth. In contrast, a capitalist country is one where the economy is based on private ownership, market competition, and profit motive.

Answer

From what I've seen the space race didn't change much except in the Political wars that countries often have over who's best. The United States won that race, but what was accomplished is beyond me.

The level of nuclear weapons required to completely destroy both sides in any war making use of such weapons.

no one really knows who invented curtains

Eastern Africa has sunrise first.

The sun rises in the east, so East Africa has light before the west. There is a time difference of approximately 2 hours between East and West Africa.

Some of them fought, others did menial jobs, and some did both.

220,000 people if you combine Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The bomb dropped on Hiroshima by itself killed 140,000; the one dropped on Nagasaki killed 80,000.

There are a few alternate viewpoints on exactly how and when the Space Race began, but the most accepted view is that it began on October 4, 1957, when the Soviet Union launched Sputnik 1, the world's first artificial satellite, into Earth orbit. This led to a rapid sequence of events in both the United States and the Soviet Union that helped mobilise the industrial resources of both superpowers towards the goal of 'beating' the other in space technology.

If you look a little further back in time, however, one could argue that the Space Race began in the years after World War Two with the ballistic missile programs of the United States and the Soviet Union. Ballistic missiles (in particular ICBM's, or Inter-Continental Ballistic Missiles), are an example of what is known as dual-use technology, in that whilst they are designed primarily for a military purpose (i.e. delivery system for nuclear weapons across continents), they also have the power to launch satellites into space. After Nazi Germany's technological leap in the development of the V2 ballistic missile during World War Two (with a range of around 300 kilometres), the United States and the Soviet Union both clamored to gather as much information as they could about this technology in the post-war confusion of occupied Germany. The Americans were undoubtedly far more successful in this venture, due to the repatriation of a number of German rocket scientists and their blueprints to the US under a project informally named "Operation Paperclip". This included Wernher von Braun, the father of the Nazi rocketry program and inventor of the V2. With much less to go off, the Soviet Union launched its own indigenous program to develop a V2 replica from scratch - this was accomplished by a man named Sergei Korolev. Both nations then continued to build upon their rocket technology over the next decade - ostensibly from a military viewpoint, but with certain individuals such as von Braun and Korolev harbouring desires for space exploration.

1957 was a key year in that it fell during the "International Geophysical Year" - a period of time dedicated to, among other things, aeronautical and upper atmospherical research. The United States had publicly declared it's intention to launch the world's first satellite during this period; following suit, the Soviet Union decided more privately on a similar project. The original design for the Sputnik satellite was far more complicated, however due to time constraints and the desire to beat the Americans into space, it was replaced with the simpler model.

The American reaponse is commonly known as the "Sputnik Crisis", and led to, among other things, the creation of NASA (the National Aeronautical and Space Administration) as a central, civilian, unified effort for the American space program.

The people that were involved in the cold war was the Soviet Union, Communist world, and the non-communist world (The US and the USSR)

Yes it did Russia beated the Germans and America beated Japan.

America was afraid that all the Europe and the glory will have Soviet Union and it

rushed to Germany

Some of the achievements were that they did all their history work and got a hundred in the class. Then, everyone was happy and wouldn't do bad ever again. ********************************* What? the entry above doesnt make sense. What super powers involved included the USSR, the US, and CHINA. i recommend u search USSR to find out which countries were part of it in wikipedia.org

the answer above is totally random-that's called a troll

In 1939 when nuclear fission of uranium-235 was discovered and reported in the scientific journals Germany, England, France, and the USSR began a race to see who could produce an atomic bomb first. In 1940 Germany took over France and absorbed their atomic bomb project. In 1942 the US entered the war and England began moving their atomic bomb project to the US, fully merging it with the Manhattan Project in 1943. Germany's atomic bomb project was effectively shut down in 1943 with the remaining research limited to small heavy water moderated reactors that might be scaled up after Germany won the war to make power plant reactors. The USSR's atomic bomb project was severely resource limited and made no significant progress during the war (except to collect information on the British and US projects through spies).

However what is usually called the "nuclear arms race" actually started September 23, 1949 when president Truman announced to the world "We have evidence that within recent weeks an atomic explosion occurred in the U.S.S.R.". This test explosion was on August 29, 1949 at 7:00 AM local time.

Mutually assured destruction (MAD) is a doctrine of military strategy in which a full-scale use of nuclear weapons by two opposing sides would effectively result in the destruction of both the attacker and the defender

The term used during the Cold War was "brinksmanship." It refers to going to the brink of war.

The United States currently owns 9,600 nuclear weapons, while Russia currently owns 16,800. But Russia actually always had more nuclear weapons than the United States.

Russia was lacking in nuclear warheads from beginning of time to 1975. For various reasons, the USSR (and now Russia) have pretty much always had more ICBM weapons than the US, while the US maintained a larger stockpile of gravity bombs, SLBMs, and cruise missiles. Currently, as nuclear-tipped cruise missiles were forbidden under the START I treaty, only bombs, ICBMs, and SLBMs are in existence, with the number of 'usable' weapons varying over time.

The cold war was a war between two sets of organized societies; in which both sides were protected under the laws of war, had they come to blows. September 11, 2001 was a crime performed on a massive scale by criminals (Terrorists); in which the suspects face/faced criminal prosecution.

A war is a conflict between countries or groups of people because they don't like the other one's idea or they don't like their beliefs. Such as the American Civil War, they were fighting because the South wanted slavery and the North wanted slaves to be free and the South wanted to make their own country that allowed slavery there for creating the Civil War.
war is a bad action

World War II got the U.S. out of the Great Depression and never got any worse from there.

"There were many words that you could not stand to hear and finally only the names of places had dignity. Abstract words such as glory, honor, courage, or hallow were obscene. "

American novelist and WW1 veteran Ernest Hemingway, in 'A Farewell to Arms', 1929

"Two armies that fight each other is like one large army that commits suicide."

French soldier Henri Barbusse, in his novel "Le Feu", 1915

policy in the 1950's that called for threatening all-out war in order to confront Communist aggression

The Axis Powers rolled their military forces through countries. Politics were swept away.
