Nato and Warsaw Pact

 The Nato and the Warsaw pact were directly formed because of the Cold War between The United States of america and The Soviet Union. The Cold war happened after WW2 had ended. Russia wanted to influence Communism in the then divided Germany and the rest of the world. The U.S. wanted to spread capitalism in  their side of Germany and other countries. These conflicting ideologies caused US and Russia to have a "cold war". They called this a cold war because the tow superpowers had never fought each other directly. The reason for this is because both countries had arsenals of Nuclear weapon. They were afraid that if they go to war one might use the Atomic Bomb then the other would counter act with its own.

For protection America and other capitalist countries formed together as a defense against the soviets. The called this (NATO)North Atlantic Treaty organization. England, France, western Germany and others were part of NATO. Soviets had considered NATO a threat. In there Response they made there own alliance with communist countries such as Eastern Germany, Poland, Romania and others. Though in 1991 people of the Warsaw Pact decided to dismantle. That what NATO and Warsaw pacts were about
