The Cold War was the aftermath of World War II. Many countries held large grudges against the victorious nations. It is referred to as 'cold' because no shots were fired. It was psychological warfare at it's height. During this war these was constant fear of nuclear bombs, which technology was perfecting. Bombing drills were held at schools routinely, and the world was living in s=constant fear of falling over the brink into World War III.

The atomic bomb was one of the most important technological advances for the Allies in World War II. Gruesome and appalling though it is, if America had not developed this research, World War II might have escalated to become much worse than it already was.

Yes, I think the United States was right to enter World War II. Hitler was, in my opinion, a mad-man, who would have stopped at nothing to create his perfect race. If America had not stepped in and stopped him, I think he would have succeeded in destroying all that the world holds dear today. America is the hope of many nations, and what would be the point of having a country of freedom, if the rest of the world was united as one terrible allegiance? America would not exist today if they had not fought and won World War II.
