When Japan fell during the Second World War, Korea was suddenly free, and hoped to finally be able to decide the fate of their own country. Most Koreans campaigned for a unified state.

However, the United States and the Soviet Union had different ideas. The Soviets wanted to expand the sphere of communist influence into Korea. The United States countered by encouraging the establishment of democracy. Additionally, the United States stressed the importance of containment, which is a foreign policy used to prevent the spread of communism.

This disagreement would eventually lead to the Korean War. The Korean War was the first battle of the Cold War, and first major proxy war fought between the United States and a Soviet communist supported enemy. A proxy war occurs when one or more opposing powers instigates a war and then uses third parties to fight on their behalf.

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

The correct answer is D) staged a coup to overthrow the Iranian government and install Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlevi as a dictator.

In response to a supposed Soviet threat to Middle Eastern oil, the American Central Intelligence Agency in 1953 staged a coup to overthrow the Iranian government and install Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlevi as a dictator.

We are talking about a CIA's plan to remove Mohammad Mosadeggh from the government and put Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlevi in his place as the new ruler of Iran. This happened in August 1953. The CIA worked closely with Great Britain intelligence in an operation called "Ajax." The United States helped finance the operation because, in those years of the Cold War, Iran had proven to be an important ally of the US in the Middle East region.
