Introduction
The Cold War was a period of tension and subdued hostility which gripped most of the world between the 1940s and the early 1990s. Rather than engaging in a potentially devastating out and out war, the countries involved in the Cold War jockeyed for position in more subtle ways. There were many major events that happened during that time period.
