The Cold War conflict lasted for 45 years and ended in 1991. During this time, the Korean War took place. As a result, we can say that it was a section of the larger Cold War conflict between the Soviet Union and the US. This war also created further divisions between the USSR and US, but it never led to a worldwide conflict between the 2 superpowers of the world. This war may have also led to our conception of North Korea today, with it being a military dictatorship with a strict leader and a place where the government controls the people. Also, this war further created the Soviet Union's image of being the one to spread communism around the world.

# data[].attributes.body
To end the Korean War, the 2 sides signed an armistice to end fighting. However, neither side was able to win this war.   Afterwards, a major effect was that the war gave the US a valid reason to increase their military in Korea. In fact, they increased it by 4 times. Also, the war impacted industrial factories and other industries and led to a decrease in production.

5. What part or role did the Soviet Union play in the Korean War and WHY?

# data[].attributes.body
The Soviet Union never openly said that they supported North Korea, but they secretly did. Thus, they were on North Korea's side. Eventually, they gave war weapons to North Korea to aid their fight. The reason for this is that the Soviets wanted North Korea to win this war to spread more communism to regions of the globe that had never experienced it.

During the Cold War, the Soviet Union and US didn't fight directly or declare war on one another, making it a nontraditional type of war. Instead, each side tried to outcompete the other through advances in technology, the economy, and athletics, along with other sectors as well.
