The Cold War was a vast, global conflict that lasted from 1945 - 1991 and had a significant impact on many regions of the world.
Towards the end of World War Two, the communist Soviet Union and capitalist United States of America began to vie for dominance as they asserted themselves as global superpowers, capable of extending their influence worldwide.
From the Potsdam Conference to the fall of the Berlin Wall, this video charts the course of the Cold War, including Kennan's Long Telegram, the Berlin Airlift, the Sino-Soviet Alliance, the Korean War, the Cuban Missile Crisis, the Vietnam War and the Soviet-Afghan War.
