<em>The map of Cuba and the US in the Cold War era is attached in this answer. </em>

Cuba was a communist country and an important ally of the Eastern bloc leaded by the URSS during the Cold War. The main threat posed by that alliance to the US (leader of the Western bloc), was the fact that Cuba is really close to the US territory, specially to Florida, and that misiles shot from Cuba could reach the US.

The best example were the tensions that took place in 1962, when the Soviets deployed ballistic in Cuba, that were close to leading to a full armed conflict. This was actually called the Cuban Missiles Crisis.

How was the War of 1812 an accidental<br> war? Please explain!
Simora [160]

Answer:

Explanation:

The British people had grown weary of the effort and cost of their twenty-year war against France, and the War of 1812 came to an end as a result. The minor war has ended now that Napoleon has been almost completely defeated. The War of 1812 was a watershed moment in American history. America won worldwide recognition as a result of its ability to bring the world's most powerful military force to a halt. It also instilled in its people a stronger sense of nationalism. In North America, opposition to the United States has waned. Hull's occupying army launched an assault on a British picket, which was forced to retreat to Amherstburg. Two British troops were inadvertently abandoned. They held their ground until they were apprehended. Private Hancock, one of them, died of his wounds later that evening, becoming the war's first British casualty.
