Answer:
During the Cold War, which occurred between 1945 and 1990, the world was divided into two very different groups: on the one hand, the capitalist bloc, led by the United States and with other relevant nations such as France, Great Britain, Japan or Australia; and on the other, the communist bloc, led by the Soviet Union, with countries such as China, Vietnam or Cuba with great relevance at the international level.
Now, with the fall of the communist bloc, the world began to divide itself into several predominant political groups: on the one hand, the bulk of capitalism remained in the same group; On the other hand, the communist bloc was divided into sectors that began to establish economic systems of market socialism, such as Russia or China; sectors that began to engage in social democratic policies, such as the Nordic countries or Canada; and nations that abandoned economic criteria to switch to religious criteria at the time of associating, such as the case of the Islamic nations of the Middle East.
