The Cold War years where those years of permanent conflict between the United States and the Soviet Union after World War II. The USSR tried to spread Communism in many countries of the world as had already happened in Bulgaria, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, East Germany, Poland, and Romania. But the United States always tried to stop it. During those years, both countries also competed in the so.called arms race, in which both countries wanted to ahead of each other in the construction of nuclear weapons.
The philosophy drove 19th-century U.S. territorial expansion and was used to justify the forced removal of Native Americans and other groups from their homes. The rapid expansion of the United States intensified the issue of slavery as new states were added to the Union, leading to the outbreak of the Civil War.
