The cold war was a lengthy period of diplomatic and military tension between USA and its NATO allies and USSR and Warsaw Pact allies. There is no definite period but it is believed that it started in 1947 after WW2 and finished in 1991 with disintegration of USSR.

{| |- | It was about 45 years in duration. Most consider the end of the Cold War to be the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1991. It began as an aftermath to World War 2 in the mid-40's. |}
