Why did the United States and USSR engage in proxy wars during the Cold War?

History

GarryVolchara [31]3 years ago

Proxy wars were used by the United States and Soviet Union as a way to fight one another without resorting to actual war between the two nations. The United States tried to use proxy wars to contain communism, as they did in Guatemala by sponsoring a coup. The USSR engaged in a proxy war by supporting communist rebels in Nicaragua. Both nations used this strategy to promote their own influence and security.

The United States and the USSR were the lone remaining superpowers left after World War II.

As a result, they viewed proxy wars much like a chess player viewed moving a pawn. If they could get a strategic advantage in Algeria or El Salvador or Cuba, they would take it and lord it over the losing superpower.

The Louisiana Purchase raised a serious question about the meaning of the Constitution. Do you think it was a good thing to inte
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Yes and no (Pick either one)

Explanation:

In a federalist view, it was awesome! They had a sense of loosely interpreting the constitution. In the democratic-republican view though, it was okay. They strictly followed the constitution and thought the federal government should not have much power, and might have not favored it as much.

But for me, I think that the Louisana purchase opened up so many oppourtunies for America such as expansion, and helped make America to what it is today.

Which of the following describes a difference between American and
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

A. European powers divided China into spheres of influence, while the United States promoted an Open Door Policy.

Explanation:

Unlike Europeans, they tried to make China a sphere of influence of their countries by turning China into a subsidiary or satellite state to their sociopolitical and economic activities in the Asian continent. The United States on the other hand created an Open Door Policy that gives equal privilege to China, its territories, and the countries that are trading with China.

Hence, the right answer is option A.
