Korean war- first North invaded the South, trying to "unify the country under communism" and the North was winning at first
UN got involved and pushed the North far back into North
China was getting nervous at how close the US was to them, so they got involved and pushed the UN forces back
the rest of the fighting was carried out on the 30th paralleleventually an armistice was signed, but never a peace treaty. So, technically, the two countries are still at war
Berlin blockade and airlift-USSR set up a blockade in Berlin because they wanted full control over the city
US took planes and dropped supplies over the line
Berlin Wall- USSR reluctantly set up a wall between East and West Germany
