The United Nations
formed the nation of
Israel as a territory for
exiled Jews around the
world after WWII
Israel was given land
formerly occupied by
Muslim Palestine
This has led to decades
of conflict between Israel
and Palestine

1. Why was the U.S. suspicious of the Soviet Union during and after WWII?
• Even during the war, the two nations disagreed on many issues
• The U.S. was furious that Soviet leader Joseph Stalin had been an ally of Hitler for a time (Nazi-Soviet Pact)
• Stalin was upset that the U.S. had kept its development of the atomic bomb a secret (Manhattan Project)
ISSUES

2. ID United Nations (U.N.)
• Included the 50 most important nations on the planet in a peacekeeping organization after WWII
• Eventually the U.S. and Soviet Union used the U.N. as a platform to exert their influence globally

3. Describe the promise Stalin made to FDR at the Yalta Conference.
• FDR, Churchill, and Stalin met at Yalta towards the end of WWII to plan the postwar world:
1. Stalin promised free elections in Soviet-controlled Poland
2. Declaration of a Liberated Europe (the right of all people to choose their own government)
3. Germany divided into 4 zones(American, British, French, and Soviet)

SUPERPOWERS STRUGGLE OVER GERMANY
• At the end of the war, Germany was divided among the Allies into fourzones for the purpose of occupation
• The U.S, France, and Great Britain decided to combine their 3 zones into one zone – West Germany, or the federal Republic of Germany
• The U.S.S.R. controlled East Germany, or the German Democratic Republic
• Now the superpowers were occupying an area right next to each other – problems were bound to occur

4. What was decided regarding “reparations” (fines) at the Potsdam
Conference?• At Potsdam, it was
decided that each of the occupying nations would take “reparations” (fines) from their own zones as they saw fit
• Each nation had a different opinion on how to punish Germany for WWII
![Page 30: U.S.S.R. 21 million - pnhs.psd202.orgpnhs.psd202.org/documents/khill/1519139384.pdf · ...

Argument between the U.S. and the Soviets over reparations (fines) towards
Germany• Stalin pushed for heavy
reparations (fines) against Germany to keep her weak
• FDR (before his death) pushed for reparations based on Germany’s ability to actually pay them back (much easier form of punishment)

5. Summarize American goals for Germany after WWII.
• Many Americans believed that economic depressionwas the main cause of WWII
• The United States believed that free trade and strong economies would help create a lasting peace in Europe and Asia
• *punish Germany but get her back on her feet economically to prevent another Hitler from taking power

6. Summarize Soviet goals for Germany after WWII.
• Soviets concerned mostly with securityafter WWII
• Their history is filled with German invasions
• Therefore there was a strong determination to keep a defeated Germany weak to prevent yet another invasion
![Page 33: U.S.S.R. 21 million - pnhs.psd202.orgpnhs.psd202.org/documents/khill/1519139384.pdf · ...

SOVIETS DOMINATE EASTERN EUROPE
• The Soviet Union suffered an estimated 21 million WWII deaths, half of whom were civilian
• As a result they felt “justified” in their claim to Eastern Europe
• Furthermore, they felt they needed Eastern Europe as a buffer against future German aggression

7. ID satellite nations and list them
• Stalin installed “puppet” communist governments in the Eastern European countries of Albania, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania, Poland, Yugoslavia and East Germany
• This after promising “free elections” for Eastern Europe at the Yalta ConferenceIn a 1946 speech, Stalin said communism
and capitalism were incompatible – and another war was inevitable

So, this is the beginning of what history calls “the Cold
War” so let’s take a few minutes to understand what
this all means

The Cold War defined
• Period of conflict between the U.S. and the Soviet Union between 1945 and 1991

ORIGINS OF THE COLD WAR
• After being Allies during WWII, the U.S. and the Soviet Union soon viewed each other with increasing suspicion
• Their political differences created a climate of icy tension that plunged the two countries into an era of bitter rivalry known as the Cold WarThe Cold War would dominate global
affairs from 1945 until the breakup of the USSR in 1991

POLITICAL DIFFERENCES
• At the heart of the tension was a fundamental difference in political systems
• America is a democracy that has a capitalist economic system, free elections and competing political parties
• In the U.S.S.R., the sole political party – the Communists – established a totalitarian regime with little or no rights for the citizens
Soviets viewed Marx, Engels and Lenin as founders of Communism

Fundamentals of Democracy
We elect our leaders to
speak on our behalf
We have the right to
voice opposition to our
leaders without fear of
punishment
If you don’t like
something, we have the
right to change it
If we want something
bad enough, we can
most certainly achieve it
