Judy{| |- | There were a number of places where the Cold War was hot. The Korean War was pretty big. The other was Vietnam. Both of these 'hot' wars involved the support of China on one side and the US on the other. |}
In reality, the term used should have been "Hot Battles" of the cold war. It takes a series of battles to make a war. Seldom is a War only one Battle.
The Korean War and the Vietnam War were HOT BATTLES of the Cold War. Hot battles are shooting wars; Cold War means NO shooting.
There was also Central America that was involved in the hotspot of the cold war. While US forces were not directly involved in those the US did try to influence the outcome by selling/giving weaponry and other supplies to those that were fighting against the communists.

What kept the cold war from becoming hot?
The cold war was never cold nor hot.
Why was the Vietnam war none of your business?
Vietnam was a "hot" battle of the "Cold War". The Korea was the first "hot" battle of the "Cold War."
How does a cold war differ from a hot war?
The Cold War was not "cold" per say, but was simply the name of a war that took place.
What are the differences between a cold war and a hot war?
A cold war is a war that is fought politically by diplomacy with no actual shot being fired. A hot war is a war where military action is used.
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).
