Answer:

Practically after the end of World War Two, serious differences between the Western Allies and the Soviet Union surfaced regarding the treatment and the future of a vanquished Germany. It was divided in four occupation zones. The Soviet zone included Berlin, also occupied by all the victorious powers. In 1948, the US gave economic aid to Germany and there were plans to introduce a single currency in the Western zones. Alarmed by these plans, the Soviet government imposed a blockade of the Western occupation areas in Berlin, trying to limit Western access to the city. The US started an airlift that lasted for a year to assist Berlin´s population. It was the first conflict of the Cold War .

did the korean war serve any purpose? was part or all of it just a mistake? what were the "results"? how much responsibility sho

Studentka2010 [4]

The Korean war had a purpose but it had largely failed.

Explanation:

Truman can and cannot be blamed for the war as he had formulated this policy of attacking in per preemptive measures to control the spread of communism that had plagued the US for so long.

At the same time the nature of the policy was such that it has led to the development of the US in certain senses.

So, as all things in history it is a two way thing and often based around the perspective one has of things.

The war itself was not a success in terms of containing communism as North Korea was out of grasp.
