1939 the start of the Cold War, a war between the two ultimate countries of the United States of America
and the Soviet Union with later spreading to Africa, Latin America, and Asia. A war is a pretty big thing to talk about so you are probably asking why did the whole war start in the first place. The whole conflict between the counties was because the Soviet Union was trying to spread their belief of communism through political and economical ways. The disagreements in ruling left the two countries in more then a little heated augment, we found our selves next in a series of battle and start of Cold War. This left America's president Harry S. Truman in a situation he wanted to act upon fast. Truman proposed an idea called the Truman Doctrine. This document was made to show that we the United States were against communism and would try to stop it from spreading all across Europe. We believed in this Doctrine so much that we sent money over to Turkey and Greece to help stop the communist from taking over. This left the second world war to really take its start and and travel to a sequel of events that live in history forever...
