Answer 5

NATO is the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. It is primarily a military alliance of European nations and America defending Europe from Soviet aggression following World War II. It defended free (i.e, Western) Europe from the Communist-dominated Eastern Europe.

Even today, we maintain military installations in Europe, even though the Soviet Union no longer exists. The focus is less on defending against Communists, but maintaining security in Europe against other enemies, especially Jihadis
