Cold War
The differences between the United States and the USSR could impact their relationship by creating tensions and conflicts due to opposing ideologies, political systems, and strategic interests. These differences could lead to competition, mistrust, and potential conflicts between the two superpowers.
After World War Two, the two nations of the USSR and the USA had major political and economic differences. The term "cold war" is a play on the term of a "hot war" meaning a conflict. There were no battles between the US & the USSR, the conflict was called a cold war.

One of the main differences between the two super powers after World War II was that the United States was a democracy and Russia was communist. America was also capitalist and Russia was socialist.
The cold war was a MILITARY stand-off between the US and USSR.
The USSR was expected to invade Germany at any time during the Cold War, which took place between 1945 and 1990 - although as it turns out, they never did.
Disagreements between the US and the USSR during World War II primarily stemmed from ideological differences and conflicting post-war visions. The US favored democratic governance and capitalism, while the USSR promoted communism and a state-controlled economy. Tensions also arose over the timing and nature of military operations, particularly the delay in opening a second front in Europe, which the Soviets felt was necessary to relieve pressure on their forces. These underlying issues set the stage for the Cold War tensions that followed the war.
