7 0

The Great Wall is a fortificated East-to-West line which historically has delimited the Chinese Northern border. Its primary purpouse was to defend the Chinese territory against the invasions and quick raids organized by the nomadic people from the Eurasian Steppe lands, located more to the North.

But rather than as a fixed border, it should be regarded as a transition zone which establishes a distinction between two different lifestyles, even nowadays: the farmer regions in the South with sedentary ways of life and the pasture lands in the North, where its inhabitants have nomadic lifestyles and work mainly in animal husbandry activities.

As you may already know, the cold war period was marked by an ideological conflict between the USA and the USSR, where the two nations that were military powers (having the same nuclear power) faced each other indirectly, since a direct conflict between the two would be disastrous. In this conflict the detente can be seen when both countries agreed to end the arms race, establish trade agreements between the two and sign a deal that ended the cold war.
