31.5 From World War To Cold War

The Cost of War As the Allies celebrated victory, the costs of war began to become clear The war killed as many as 75,000,000 people The Soviet Union had the most casualties, with more than 22,000,000 dead Cities were in ruins, survivors faced hunger and disease

To keep the peace, 50 countries set up the United Nations The UN aimed to stop war, guard rights, and improve health and education

After World War II, the United States and the Soviet Union created the strongest military forces on earth Many Eastern European countries and part of Germany came under Soviet domination The Soviet leader Stalin wanted to spread communism and create a buffer zone to prevent attacks from the west The United States and other democratic countries opposed Stalin’s plan

Tension between the two powers led to the Cold War, a state of conflict without armed battle The “iron curtain” that separated Eastern Europe and free nations in the West became a symbol of the Cold War

NATO The United States took steps to stop the spread of communism In 1949, the free nations of the west set up the North Atlantic Treaty Organization

The Warsaw Pact To counter NATO, the Soviet Union formed the Warsaw Pact, joining the Soviet Union and its satellite nations in Eastern Europe

Cold War Efforts To Halt Communism Truman Doctrine U.S. program to stop the spread of communism Formed by U.S. President Harry Truman Offered to poor nations likely to fall to communism States that United States would give military and economic aid to any country fighting communism Aid given to Greece and Turkey

Marshall Plan (1947) Gave U.S. financial aid to rebuild Europe Named after U.S. Secretary of State George C. Marshall Gave over $17,000,000,000 in aid, including food, machinery, and raw materials Welcomed by all nations of Europe except the Soviet Union and its communist allies
