The Cold War really began before WW II as the US and Russia had 2 very opposing views of government and didn't trust each other. However, during the war, the two countries had to put their differences aside to beat Nazi Germany. Towards the end of the war, it was evident that heat was building up between the two countries again. The Soviets were taking liberties in areas that suggested they were not only interested in winning the war but taking land also. They insisted they control Berlin at the end of the war, wanted Manchuria for their own and not to give back to China, insisted they be in charge of Postwar Japan operations (MacArthur said absolutely not) and were really upset that the US had the power to use a nuclear bomb that they didn't even know existed. The Soviets were also aggressive after the war in areas such as Korea and Viet Nam with "support".

the British victory over their colonial rebels would have deprived other potential revolutionary movements in the Spanish New World of their inspiration. Instead of America going to war with Mexico in 1848, it is likely that the expanded British New World Empire would have gone to war against, and likely won against, the Spanish North American colony. As part of the victory treaty, the Brits likely would have claimed the same territory from the New World Spanish possessions which the U.S. claimed from Mexico. However, by this point slavery would have been abolished, and therefore not a primary motivation of that war.
