Many historical events happen in the 20th century and can always be remembered, but events that everyone knows and always remember are the Second World War. World War II, this is the greatest tragedy on the planet, a massacre of the Jews, a perfect nightmare. When people think about World War II, they often think about the image of "poor Jews." Many people ask myself how this happened. They have no meaning.
The Cold War was an ideological war between the two world powers of the United States and the Soviets after the Second World War. After the Second World War, Germany was defeated and Britain and France were exhausted both economically and socially. America and the Soviet Union have considerable power and soon rose to the status of a superpower. This leads to two powers becoming competitors through conflicting ideologies and mutual distrust, both of which contend for power. The Soviet Union wishes to spread communism in Eastern Europe and establish a friendly government zone as a defense against Germany. In Eastern Europe under the control and influence of the Soviet Union in 1946, Europe was divided into the west side (Western democracy and the United States) and the eastern side (Soviet and Soviet occupation) groups.

From the end of the Second World War in 1945 to the end of the Cold War of 1991, the iron curtain symbolizes the ideological conflict and the physical boundary. This term symbolizes an open contact between the Soviet Union's efforts to interfere with itself and its satellite and western and non-Soviet ruled areas. On the east side of the iron curtain, there are countries related to or influenced by the Soviet Union. On both sides of the iron curtain, the state established its own international economic and military alliance:
The aftermath of the Second World War was the beginning of the era defined by the decline of all European colonial empires and the simultaneous appearance of two superpowers, the USSR and the United States of America. The allies during the Second World War, the US, the Soviet Union became competitors on the world stage and participated in the Cold War. Because it did not lead to a hot war publicly announced between the two countries. Western Europe and Japan were rebuilt by the American Marshall Plan, but Central and Eastern Europe belonged to the scope of the Soviet influence and eventually became "Iron Curtain." Europe is divided into a Western group headed by the United States and an East group led by the Soviet Union. Internationally, the alliance relationship between the two groups is gradually changing, and some countries are trying to avoid the Cold War through non-alliance movement.
