When Germany fell during World War II, Russia began plans to conquer the war-torn countries of Europe and eventually take over the world. The result was the “Cold War”. There was no fighting. It was a political game of chess where Russia continued to build its army and the United States built up its military strength to counter them. The United States was under constant fear that Russia would attack the United States with nuclear weapons, but Russia knew if they did, the United States would fire their missiles and destroy Russia. It was a war Russia could not win. The United States had the economic and military advantage. Eventually the Russian empire collapsed from putting all its money into military equipment and neglecting its people who were starving.
