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.

Which would be the most reliable source to collect and transmit information on the Civil War?
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

A. a battle journal written by an officer of the Confederate army

Explanation:

A battle journal written by an officer of the Confederate army would be the most reliable source to collect and transmit information on the Civil War.

Journals are records which are actually written during the time the action was taken place. So, a Confederate army putting down the experiences of a Civil War will be reliable because he is writing out of his experiences. Journals are credible because you can verify the facts from their original sources as well as it is enriched with facts and truths. Journals offer clarity.
