Introductions The United States government was hostile to the Soviet leaders for taking Russia out of World War I and they were disapproving that The Soviet Union had the ideologically on communism. The United States had refused recognition to the USSR for 16 years after the Bolshevik takeover. Then later on Winston Churchill warned to the United States about the "Iron Curtain" by giving a speech in Fulton, Missouri. The communist spreader also known as the Soviet Union were trying to take over other weaker countries to make it his own. To try and prevent communism from spreading, the President Harry S. Truman created the Truman Doctrine which stopped the Communist. When the conflict was over, the leaders of the three Allied countries all came together to discuss the plans after Germany had lost World War ll in Yalta. This was the most ongoing battle and uses battle between the U.S. and the Soviets.

Revolutions #1 The Chinese had a revolution that involves the children to rebel against anyone that they think is against the leader. Mao Zedong created a book called the Red Book so he could brainwashed the children. He then chose the children as his army because the children were the new generation and that when things started young, it would carry them until they were old. Mao knows that most of the children were being mistreated by their parents so he used this as a reason. The children were then sent to kill anyone who rebel against him. Many that were killed were over 1.3 billion men and woman. This was a successful outcome when he accomplished his goals.

After many years, the people there realized that communism wasn't the right choice for them to survive. So they decided that they wanted to be free. Then they choice to become a capitalist country.

Hot SpotsA Conflict that lead to the causes of the conflict between the United States and the Soviet Union was the Berlin Wall. The Berlin wall was a physical wall that separated the east Germany from the west Germany. On both sides the disagreement was the political system for which was capitalism and communism for either side. The United States wanted capitalism, while the Soviet Union was Communism. This then created the war that was known as the Cold War.

Hot SpotsThe Vietnam was another war that the United States got involved with. The Vietnam country was taken over by communism so the United States decided to help Vietnam. The Vietnam War was a long and costly conflict. More than 3 million people, including 58,000 Americans were killed in the during this war. Many that tried to helped with this but they didn't make it.

End of the Cold WarDuring the 1989 and the 1990, the Berlin Wall was torn down, the borders were opened, and free elections drive out the Communist everywhere in the eastern Europe. In the late 1991, the Soviet Union itself dissolved into its component republics. Reagan then realized that the Soviet Union economy was in bad shape after they had tried to keep up with the United States. After a couple of months, the Soviet Union's economy had collapsed due to the fact that they have been spending way too much money on other events. Then later on, the Berlin wall was broken down by the law that were passed and The Cold War had ended.

Who Started the Cold War?In my opinion, it was the United States that caused the Cold War. They were the ones that created the Truman Doctrine which states that everywhere the communist happens, they will try to stop it. When the United States came into contact with the Soviet Union, trouble had awaited them. If the United States had left the Soviet Union alone when they wanted to spread the communist around then conflict would not have arise. In the long run, any communist will soon disappear since the communist government doesn't trade with other people, their economy would fall.
