Using what you learned in the lesson and the documents you read in the assignment, answer this question: How did the Cold War lead to conflict?

Answer:

The Cold War led to conflict because the United States and the Soviet Union competed for global influence and ideological dominance. To stop the spread of communism (containment), the US engaged in proxy wars in Korea and Vietnam. Additionally, the nuclear arms race and the proximity of communist regimes, such as in the Cuban Missile Crisis, created direct military tensions and nearly led to global war.
