The Cold War
Was a decades-long standoff (1947-1991) between the US (capitalism/democracy) and the Soviet Union (communism),
fought with political tension, propaganda, an arms race (especially nuclear), espionage, and proxy wars
(supporting opposing sides in other conflicts), but without direct, large-scale fighting between the two superpowers
because of mutual fear of nuclear annihilation.
