00:00:00,500 --> 00:00:05,639
Hi, my name is Eduardo, and I am going to talk about the Cold War.

2
00:00:06,419 --> 00:00:14,099
In the beginning, before anything else, I will say that this is the flag of the Soviet Union.

3
00:00:15,460 --> 00:00:23,079
It was a country that was on the Cold War, that is not now.

4
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:46,340
Now, let's start. Between 1947 to the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991, between capitalists and communists, USA and Soviet Union, a political, ideological, social and cultural war.

5
00:00:46,340 --> 00:00:57,340
USA made the NATO in 1949 with the purpose to stop Soviet influences in Europe.

6
00:00:57,340 --> 00:01:03,340
The Soviet Union responded with the Warsaw Pact in 1955.

7
00:01:03,340 --> 00:01:10,340
An agreement of common defense signed by the Eastern Bloc countries.

8
00:01:10,340 --> 00:01:12,340
What is NATO?

9
00:01:12,340 --> 00:01:24,340
NATO is the North Atlantic Trade Organization, in which USA and all its members agree to defend each other.

10
00:01:24,340 --> 00:01:38,340
The main crises were the Berlin Blockade in 1948-1949, the Korean War in 1950-1953,

11
00:01:38,340 --> 00:01:48,340
The Berlin Crisis in 1961 and the Cuban Missiles in 1962.

12
00:01:48,340 --> 00:01:54,340
USA and the Soviet Union start to compete by the recently

13
00:01:54,340 --> 00:02:01,340
decolonized states of Africa and Asia and the South American

14
00:02:01,340 --> 00:02:15,199
and Middle East parts, where communism had big streets. This includes some experiences

15
00:02:15,199 --> 00:02:23,199
like the Malaysian Emergency or Indonesian War. Although NATO and the Warsaw Pact did

16
00:02:23,199 --> 00:02:31,060
not face each other in any armed conflict , their leaders

17
00:02:31,060 --> 00:02:39,680
were Lenin Stalin in part of the Soviet Union and Truman in part of USA. The Cold War part

18
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:51,319
of 1947 to 1991. 44 years. And that's all about my presentation. I hope you enjoy. I'm

19
00:02:51,319 --> 00:02:55,979
going to be on this beautiful Hamtaka.
