Final Project Milestone One Proposal HIS 245 Kimberly Lee-Fields July 13, 2023

The Cold War opened a rivalry between the Soviets and the United States. The Soviets had installed governments in western Europe and had the Red Army. Communism and capitalism played a part in moving forward. The Red Scare had everyone uneasy and had many thinking that their people and officials were communist spies. The scare of spreading communism was evident as they were afraid of the Soviets being in Europe and dominating. The Korean War was a result of the communist Soviet led government of North Korea invading South Korea which were allies of the U. S. that lasted until 1953. The Cuban missile crisis was a result of the Soviets and the U. S. developing missiles with the Soviets secretly putting theirs in Cuba so they could launch an attack on the U. S. Two superpowers were then on the brink of war before an agreement was made. They both signed the Nuclear Test-Ban Treaty of 1963 as they both were in in fear of the other using nuclear weapons as retaliation. The Vietnam War was a result of the U. S. not wanting the communist rule of North Vietnam coming into South Vietnam in which the U. S. lost and many lives were lost. The aspect of the Cold War was a mixture of military, economic, social and political in nature. The United States was for capitalism and the Soviets were against that and for communism.
