The "Guerra Fria," or Cold War, was a prolonged period of geopolitical tension between the Soviet Union and the United States, alongside their respective allies, from the end of World War II in 1947 until the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991. This era was marked by ideological conflict, military buildups, proxy wars, and a nuclear arms race, as both superpowers sought to expand their influence globally while avoiding direct military confrontation. The Cold War significantly shaped international relations, leading to numerous conflicts, the establishment of military alliances, and the eventual shift towards a unipolar world order.
