    Canada played a very large role in the development of NATO and how they handled each situation involving the Cold War. Canada came up with the peacekeeping force that were successfully de-escalating problems across the world like in the Suez Crisis, Korean war, and in the Congo that might have lead to something bigger. Another thing Canada did with NATO was supply their soldiers to the peacekeeping force and give their navy to them so they could escort trade ships across the Atlantic Ocean that were being Intervened and gun down by Soviet submarines. The last thing Canada did was use a variety of tools to watch over the Soviet Union to keep a look out for an attack. The tools they used were spies, radars, planes, missile detection and many other methods that could detect if an attack was going to happen so they could prepare and report it to the other countries of NATO to set up an effective…

    The German-Japanese alliance during World War II was made official in September of 1940, a full year after the start of the war in Europe. However, the German Japan relationship dates back to 1936, when Hitler sent Joachim von Ribbentrop to sign the Anti-Comintern Pact with Japan. The Anti-Comintern Pact was an agreement between Germany and Japan to thwart the spread of communism. This was the beginning of the Axis alliance, and Italy joined in late 1936. In case of an attack by the Soviet Union against Germany or Japan, these two countries would back each other. Germany ensures that it would have an ally in event of a Soviet attack, and Japan had Germany recognize its puppet regime in Manchuria. Hitler broke the terms of this pact in…

    There were two core treaties that defined the Cold War; NATO and the Warsaw Pact. In 1949, the possibilities of the Communist expansion prompted the United States and 11 other Western nations to take action and form the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). The NATO was a joining of the western nations and their beliefs. In response, the Soviet Union and its other Communist nations in Eastern Europe founded another alliance, the Warsaw Pact, in 1955. The Warsaw Pact was seen as the communist group. The alignment of nearly every European nation into one of these two opposing camps clarified the political division of the European continent that had taken place since World War II. This alignment provided the framework for the military standoff…
