A) Warsaw Pact
B) Hot war
C) Truman Doctrine
D)Marshall Plan
E) Warm War
F) Iron Curtain
G) NATO
H) Cold War

Answer 1

The correct answer is "B) Hot War".

A "Hot War" is the state where 2 countries are actually involved in fighting. It is the ultimate stage where all diplomatic negotiations fall apart.

Throughout history, there was a shift from "Hot War" to "Cold War" shortly after the Second World War ended. Actual fighting was replaced by ideological competition between capitalism (The United States) and communism (The Soviet Union).
