<span>When they arrive in the land of the Lotus Eaters, Odysseus sends out a total of three men (2 men and a runner) to explore the island. These three men eat the Lotus and lose "their hope of home," which means they forget about their entire goal: to go back to Ithaca. Odysseus warns the rest of his men not to eat the Lotus and ties up the three men in an attempt to bring them home anyway. He understands that eating the plant will make you want to stay on the island.</span>
Off the top of my head:
The US devised the Manhattan project during ww2 and afterwards to develop nuclear weapons. The kept this secret from USSR even though they were allied. This contributed to Stalin’s paranoia and increased tensions between the two countries.
You also mention how Truman used this ‘atomic-monopoly’ to give him confidence and make him think that he could dictate decisions during the Potsdam conference and other meetings which heightened tensions with USSR.
Nuclear weapons also played a large role during the Cuban Missile Crisis, the point where nuclear war was at it’s closest to becoming reality and destroying the world.
By that point the USSR had also developed atomic bombs. The fact both superpowers had nuclear weapons meant they had to be sensitive in the way they handled each other and you could link this with Cuba and argue that it was the only reason the Cold War didn’t turn into full-scale, physical war.
There’s other things you could say beyond these points as well.
Karl Marx was an influential German thinker and revolutionary who pioneered the idea of Communism.

Communist societies has two social class: the working class and the capitalist class.
Answer: Each country had its own agenda about the post-war world.
Context/explanation:
Churchill in particular, along with Roosevelt, pushed strongly for Stalin to allow free elections to take place in the nations of Europe after the war. At that time Stalin agreed, but there was a strong feeling by the other leaders that he might renege on that promise. The Soviets never did allow those free elections to occur. Later, Winston Churchill wrote, "Our hopeful assumptions were soon to be falsified." Stalin and the Soviets felt they needed the Eastern European nations as satellites to protect their own interests. So one key point of disagreement between Stalin and the other two was over the direction things would take in Eastern Europe after the war.
While Winston Churchill and Franklin Delano Roosevelt were on the same page in many ways, there were also key differences between them. As noted by The Churchill Project of Hillsdale College, "FDR, ever the optimist, believed (or wanted to believe) that Stalin could be convinced that the West was not committed to destruction of the Soviet regime." Churchill had a much more skeptical view of Stalin and the Soviet Union and approached the relationship in a firmer fashion. Roosevelt had hoped to continue cooperation with the USSR. That changed under Truman, who took over the US Presidency after FDR's death. Truman was strongly anti-communist in his stance.
Another difference between Roosevelt and Churchill pertained to colonialism and imperialism. Again as noted by The Churchill Project: "Over colonialism. Roosevelt firmly believed European colonialism had been a major cause of World War I, and that it had continued to be a source of international disputes and tensions before World War II. Churchill had sworn defend the realm, which, when he took office, included the British Empire." As it happened, after World War II, colonialism's days were numbered and independence movements broke out around the world where imperial powers had dominated.
