What is an example of limited war?
A limited war used in the context of the cold war meant LIMITED to conventional weapons only. To do otherwise meant total war, verses limited war. Total war would include the use of nuclear weapons. Such as WW2 (the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki). The Korean War (1950-1953) and the Vietnam War (1961-1975) were the first and only limited wars fought during the cold war. Cold War meaning between the communists and free world.
Was the cold war a war of much military action?
There was no military action during the Cold War. As opposed to a 'hot war', meaning a shooting war, the conflict between the West and the Soviet Bloc was restricted to a war of economics, sanctions, boycotts, and similar political struggles.
Hot Wars were found where?
The term "hot war" should, and was intended to be used, only in conjunction with the term "cold war." Meaning that a "cold war" is a non-shooting war; and a "hot war" is a shooting war. Extra examples: 1. People die in "hot wars." 2. People do not die in "cold wars." (accidents don't count).
