The Cold War was definately the war to change America's perspective on things. So many events took place that easily changed the outlook of our country. From everything starting from the A-Bomb on Japan to the to the creation of the H-Bomb, America's advancements were uncontrollable. Former allies, the U.S. and the U.S.S.R., couldn't be clashing heads more. It's amazing to think that for decades the two nations were buddy-buddy and now they are pushing threats and destroying each other; everything has to be a competition now. Throughout the years of the Cold War, as said before, tensions were rising, casuality rates were increasing, and threats were being heard everywhere you went. From the beginning of the Korean War, U.S.S.R. was adament on their position of spreading communism to China, Korea, and sister countries who they still wanted control of. Of course, America wanted the world to be at peace, which was code to the U.S.S.R. as NO COMMUNISM. Obviuosly, Krushchev wasn't getting the picture. Both countries were doind everything in their power to get what they wanted and with many lives lost, many threatens surfaced, and many conference meetings, the Cold War was ended with another humongous victory to America.
