The Cold War began in Europe after World War II. The
Soviet Union won control of Eastern Europe. It controlled
half of Germany and half of Germany’s capital, Berlin. The
United States, Britain, and France controlled western
Germany and West Berlin. In June 1948, the Soviet Union
blocked roads and railroads that led to West Berlin. The
United States, Great Britain, and France flew in supplies.
This was called the Berlin Airlift.

There were about eight presidents throughout the Cold War, but when it began Harry S. Truman was the president of the United States.
During the Cold War people were paranoid and scared which made them stand behind the U.S. against the communist of Russia. Although there was no actual war between the U.S. and Russia there was a lot of spying that went back and forth between the two. All the money that went towards all the secret missions was payed for by the citizens of the U.S. Today people or the government made the people scared of being attacked by our enemies, due to this we went to war in the Middle East and now possibly Iran. Currently it would be devastating for us to go into a another so called "war" that was not past by congress.
