Answer 9

There really has never been a out right conflict between the USSR or Russia and the the USA. The Cold war started in 1947 because the then USSR wanted the BOMB and they sent spys to the usa to get it.

Answer 20

James Bond by Ian Flemming was a huge part of the culture during that span. It often made the USSR look like the villains and to a point they were. The books were made into movies so you have two there. The Jason Born books were written some time in the late 80s as well as Dale Brown. The Dale brown books were The future of USA warfare and the main enemy at the time was the former USSR

Answer 21

Yes i was taught at school and at home because my father was a history teacher so I learned a lot about the cold war from him. I did a report on nuclear war and missile tech in fourth grade which was in the 80s and nuclear war was a real threat at that time

Answer 22

The Falkland war in the 80s and the fall of Yugoslavia were conventional conflicts that threaten to bring both countries in the conflicts

Answer 23

well the first satellite was russian called spuntnik and we were the first to moon though russia was the first to put a living thing in to orbit. The challenger was the first reusable space craft though the USSR had one but never completed that program. We had the challenger disaster in 80 or 81 and that made world headlines. as what it ment to me not much I was really young at the time though I did want to go to the moon!

Answer 24

the last one I changed so here's the first one why was the nuclear war a real threat at the time? but question 10 is still the same

Answer 25

Nuclear was a real threat because of the amount of weapons that were in the world. the geopolitical climate at the time was tense between us and russia and several other nuclear powers.

Answer 26

there were two big things other than military that happened in sports between us and the former USSR. Hockey has always been a big rivalry between the two nations. And we boycotted the Olympics that were held in the USSR i dont remember the year.

Answer 27

Answer 28

Yes I remember the wall coming down I was in history class at the time and we were watching CNN live as the people jumped on the wall with sledge hammers breaking it apart. I was happy for Germany to be a single country again and that meant a lot for the German people. I also have a few relatives that are in Germany and they were happy beyond belief because some of their relatives were in east Germany

Answer 29

what to take away from that cold war is nothing is ever what it seams and any thing can happen at any time so be prepared and watch what is going on around you

Answer 30

It made be a be aware of what is happening in the world! I stay abreast of all things connected to the world we live in today. you never know what is going to happen so by being informed I stay ahead of any thing that may hurt me or my family

Answer 31

growing up in the late 70. 80, 90s were a interesting time in the USA lots of new things came into being. Cell phones, Internet, ect. This made the world a smaller place and things happen faster. You might be a week from learning something in the eighties but today its instant. So I feel we are more informed which makes better people
