At the end of WWII another war began, a secret war lasting from the mid 40's to the early 90's. Following the second world war they was a conflict between the two great powers, at the time the great powers were the United States and Russia later China. The USSR's and China's were based on communisum, and the United States based on democrocy the conflict between the East and West.

Yeah, it's featured frequently in movies and books from that era, most notably the classic James Bond movies, it has also spawned a slew of jokes...

So... Where is this discussion going?

cold war was actually 1952-1991. I was six months old when it ended as I was born on the 9th of December 1990. It ended when the Berlin wall was demolished

Yeah, that's right... It was both the cold AND the silent war, but it was at times merely a button-press away from a full-blown nuclear war. It is also a popular theme for role-playing games and different computer media...

The cold war had no battle, but it was the most frightening time, with defections threats of a new world war scary.

a war is a collection of battles. There wouldn't be a battle called "Cold War" same as there would not be a battle called "WWII" inside WWII. I know what you mean by no fighting war as that is what it was reputed to be. There only was a few small battles inside it.

There wouldn't of been a Cold war if America didn't drop the two atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. As this attack served as a grim message toward Russia against Communism (who then became The Soviet Union (USSR)). Russia did not take the message kindly and so the first arguement against Capitalism came about. Which is how the Cold war began. (not very detailed but hey)

The bombs were a way of America saying "hey we're a superpower now, don't mess with us!"
