Film "The Right Stuff"


The Film " The Right Stuff " talked about two countries trying to send people into space. The Russians were the first to send a actual person into space. The Americans were the first to go into the moon though. I am guessing that this film would eventually help by showing that the Americans beat the Russians. Or that every time that the Russians did something High the Americans Beat them by doing something higher. Thats how this movie can eventually relate to the Cold war.

NATO and The Warsaw Pact


NATO stands for North Atlantic Treaty Organization . The point of this organization was that if One country involved in the treaty was to get attacked all the others were to come and help. Under the Marshall Plan Countries with this treaty would also get economic help. Everything would only be done when all the countries agree to cooperate with each other. That way they can re-build themselves more quickly and end on good terms. The Warsaw Pact is a pact basically similar to The NATO . The Difference is that this pact is the dominator. In July of 1991 there were still 6 countries in the pact that are wanting to dissolve.
