- Cuban MIssle Crisis
- One very important thing that happened during the Cold War was the Cuban Missile Crisis. This event was really intense and dangerous. The United States found out that the Soviet Union was putting nuclear missiles in Cuba. This made the situation very tense between the two superpowers. It got so serious that both sides were getting ready for a possible war using nuclear weapons. But thankfully, they were able to talk and find a solution. They made a deal, and the Soviet Union agreed to remove the missiles from Cuba. This helped to make things less scary and brought the tension down between the United States and the Soviet Union.
- The Berlin Wall
- One really important event during the Cold War was the building and falling of the Berlin Wall. This big wall was put up to separate East Berlin from West Berlin. It showed how the communist countries, like the Soviet Union, and the capitalist countries, like the United States, were very different and didn't get along. But something big happened in 1989. People in Eastern Europe started to protest and things began to change. The Berlin Wall was torn down. This was a really, really big deal because it showed that things were starting to get better. Germany became one country again, and it was also a sign that the Soviet Union was going to have some problems later on.
- Space Race
- During the Cold War, the United States and the Soviet Union were in a big competition to see who could be the best in space exploration. They both wanted to show off their technology and science skills to look better than the other. Some important things happened during this competition. In 1957, the Soviet Union launched a satellite called Sputnik 1. It was the first man-made thing to go around the Earth in space. Then, in 1969, the United States did something amazing. They sent astronauts on a mission called Apollo 11, and they actually landed on the moon! These things were really special because they showed how good both countries were at technology, and it made people feel very proud of their countries.
