This all boils down to the Communist East vs. Capitalist West subject that had been forming since 1917 with the dawn of the Bolshevik revolution and the advent of the Soviet Union. In prewar time, the Germans had a deal with the Russians: The Russians would manufacture weapons and machines of war for Germany, and the German's would train Russian officers. (you won't find that in a high school textbook, I had to dig for that!) After the war, Russia wanted revenge, so Germany ended up looking like a giant pizza, cut multiple ways. While Berlin was deep in East Bloc territory, but was still divided between France, Britain, the U.S., and the USSR. With the rise of nuclear arms, tensions ran extremely high, and nuclear war seemed iminent, particularly around the Cuban Missle Crisis. Russia began adding sattelite nations to its influence, getting as far as halfway around the world in Cuba, Korea, and Vietnam.
