Cold War Padlet by Dylan Durrell https://padlet.com/99015090/71xp45dl2949 By: Dylan, Luis, Caleb, Mathew en-us 2017-11-09 21:54:53 UTC 2022-08-11 12:50:18 UTC hello@padlet.com Conflicts of the Cold War 99015090 https://padlet.com/99015090/71xp45dl2949/wish/205527747 During the span of the Cold War many conflicts broke out where the US and Soviets chose apposing sides. The first of these major conflicts was the Korean War. The Korean War lasted about 3 years from June 1950 to July 1953. The war was between the North Koreans and the South Koreans. The Soviets sided with the North Koreans that wanted to take over the entire peninsula. The US sided with the South Koreans who just wanted to maintain peace with the North Koreans. The war ended in a stalemate and the Korean peninsula was evenly divided between the 2 countries. The other major conflict during this time was the Vietnam War. This war lasted for 20 years, from 1955 all the way to 1975. The war was between the Viet Cong and the South Vietnamese. The Soviets sided with the Viet Cong because they were communists and the Soviets wanted to help spread communism. The US sided with the South Vietnamese because they thought that if the Soviets got control of Vietnam that it would start the "Domino Effect". Which would cause other countries to become communist.]]> 2017-11-09 22:17:09 UTC https://padlet.com/99015090/71xp45dl2949/wish/205527747 Arms/Space Race 99015090 https://padlet.com/99015090/71xp45dl2949/wish/205527986 By the mid-1950s, the U.S.-Soviet Cold War had worked its way into the fabric of everyday life in both countries, fueled by the arms race and the growing threat of nuclear weapons, wide-ranging espionage and counter-espionage between the two countries, war in Korea and a clash of words and ideas carried out in the media. These tensions would continue throughout the space race, exacerbated by such events as the construction of the Berlin Wall in 1961, the Cuban missile crisis of 1962 and the outbreak of war in Southeast Asia.
Space exploration served as another dramatic arena for Cold War competition. On October 4, 1957, a Soviet R-7 intercontinental ballistic missile launched Sputnik (Russian for “traveler”), the world’s first artificial satellite and the first man-made object to be placed into the Earth’s orbit. Sputnik’s launch came as a surprise, and not a pleasant one, to most Americans. In the United States, space was seen as the next frontier, a logical extension of the grand American tradition of exploration, and it was crucial not to lose too much ground to the Soviets. In addition, this demonstration of the overwhelming power of the R-7 missile–seemingly capable of delivering a nuclear warhead into U.S. air space–made gathering intelligence about Soviet military activities particularly urgent.

As well as symbolizing the anger and constant competition between Democracy and Communism that set Eastern and Western Europe against each other. The Cold War was caused and added to tensions between governments. The Berlin Wall, which was a symbol of the Iron Curtain, caused many problems, because it separated many families and caused many innocent people to get arrested. On top of this it wasn't easy to sneak over the Berlin Wall, because soldiers were stationed on each side preventing the contact between Communists and Democrats. This level of isolation between the countries associated with NATO and those connected to the Warsaw Pact that was caused by the Iron Curtain and its related policies, contributed to the Cold War by increasing levels of suspicion between the two groups and fostering more hatred.]]> 2017-11-09 22:18:34 UTC https://padlet.com/99015090/71xp45dl2949/wish/205528028 Causes of the Cold War 99014488 https://padlet.com/99015090/71xp45dl2949/wish/205528242 After WWII, the Soviets started to become communist after they allied with the U.S. to fight other axis power countries. The Cold War lasted from 1947-1991. The Soviet Union became a communist country and planned to launch a missile to the U.S. The U.S. wanted to stop the Soviet Union by telling the Soviet Union government to stop the missile launch. The Soviet Union decides to give up the missile launch and the U.S. shouts with victory.]]> 2017-11-09 22:19:47 UTC https://padlet.com/99015090/71xp45dl2949/wish/205528242 U.S.S.R. 99015810 https://padlet.com/99015090/71xp45dl2949/wish/206987449 Союз нерушимый республик свободных

Cờ in máu chiến thắng mang hồn nước,
Súng ngoài xa chen khúc quân hành ca.

Thắng gian lao cùng nhau lập chiến khu.
Vì nhân dân chiến đấu không ngừng,
Tiến mau ra sa trường,
Tiến lên, cùng tiến lên.
Nước non Việt Nam ta vững bền.
