Because no bullets were fired.
Actually plenty of bullets and other weapons were fired, just not directly between US and USSR forces. Remember the Korean and Vietnam wars? But no nuclear weapons were fired in combat by anybody.
After World War Two there was distrust between communist Russia and capitalist America. This led to nearly 50 years of competition and conflict between these two superpowers, called the cold war. It is called the cold war because America and Russia didn't really fight or go to war with each other. Instead they competed by spending large amounts of money on weapons, a space race and Propaganda.
Because the Cold War was mostly just an arms race between America/Democracy and Russia/Communism. With the noteworthy exception of the Korean War, there was no actual fighting with America and Russia. The war was mostly just a race to show the world which system of government was most powerful, ergo there it wasn't a war where people fought and died, a hot war.
It got its name because the war never escalated into a direct conflict between the U.S. and the USSR. The entire "war" was fought through indirect struggles to spread or oppose communism.
bc it really was just a stare down usa and russia both had rockets pointed at each other. it wasnt a heated battle. russia had rockets on Cuba pointed at usa and with cuba that close we sighned a treaty.
It was a tense war where the two superpowers (US and SU) had cold relations towards each other. There was no fighting (directly) between the two states, so it was not a hot war; but a cold one.
The name 'cold war' was first mentioned in a book of George Orwell. For more information please see wikipedia.
It was a COLD war because there was none of very little fighting done. E.g. The Vietnam War... It would have been a HOT war if there was fighting involved but it was generally just discussions and arguments between Russia and America with a bit of British involvement. It was only given that name because cold wars are much rarer than hot wars.
Because it wasn't a shooting war. A shooting war is a hot war. COLD WAR=Military Stand Off
the named it the cold war because no shots were fired. it was between the Russians and the Americans. we and the Russians were threating each other with nukes but nothing was ever shot
no one was actually involved in a direct military confrontation.
NATO
The cold war was not an actual 'war'. However there were several times that it came close to becoming a war though. I hear about that if the tension and push for expansion of the USSR continued and they advanced on the other sectors and captured them that there might have been another World war.
It was involve by contributing to the cold war
The Cold War was not "cold" per say, but was simply the name of a war that took place.
World War Two was an origin of the Cold War.
the cold war
Do you mean, "Why was the era AFTER world war 2 called the cold war?" Because no one calls the era of WW2 the cold war.
NATO
No bullets need for it to be a war, Look at a War of words for instance
No, it will be around the time of the Cold War.
The meaning of Cold in Cold War is simply that they call it the cold war because there was no fighting between the U.S's military and the Soviet millitary. Sometimes people will ask, "what if the cold war had turned hot?" that simply means "What would have happend if the U.S. and the U.S.S.R had actually fought each other?'
