The Cold War - Summary on a Map (long version)

Fun fact: In the korean war, Syng-Man Rhee actually recorded a tape to be played on radio. He told the people to stand and fight, all while he ran and fled.

Geo politics with history narrative are so fun to watch

Might I say that this is your best video yet! I love the new animations, especially the pictures of the leaders of each country, and the much higher detail on each event! Splendid video!

This is a splendid synthetic appraisal, conveying tons of relevant info in a super clean and economic manner. Without lame jokes, or being clogged by convoluted useless graphics or too loud soundtrack. It has visual impact, being simple. For me this is a lesson on how to make a video. I loved even the font you used. Congrats for the excellent job!

I love how the Cold War is so different from every other war as the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. both competed in every way possible except direct military conflict. It makes it such an interesting war to learn about. Great work on this video!

Great job! This channel stands out for its objective reporting on historical matters, avoiding the bias of ideology that most others seem to embrace these days. Keep it up guys!

19:14 Indonesia was not ruled by a Communist government before Suharto, they were neutral and simply let the country’s communist party to exist as long as they didn’t try to overthrow the government

The Bangladeshi liberation war had played a part in the Cold War. The USA supporting Pakistan and the Ussr supporting India and Bangladesh. This led to Russia having India as an ally

Better make sure to deep diver on the proxy conflicts instead of the space race

3:36 Most people don’t know that Japan was originally supposed to be partitioned like Germany. The plan was only enacted for an invasion of Japan, which never happened. And the fact that the USA did a majority of the work.

And now I understand why so many (relatively young) newly independent countries are so unstable. They have no chance for stability when all these superpowers are constantly tearing them apart

USA supporting the mujahadeen in the Cold War and giving birth to the rise of Bin Laden will be one of the funniest things from this

When’s the Warm War?

One of those cases where I've heard of everything individually, but never knew how they tied together. I'm gonna watch this eight or ten more times lol.

When the video shows the US moon landing, I legit freaked out because I thought the video ends😂

9:54 Both were lead by extremely good looking men, but don't let that deceive you, they were both ruthless dictators, who both wanted to reunite Korea, under their own accords.

Honey, wake up! Geo History is posting the much awaited long-version of Cold War!

You forgot the cia armed rebellion in Ghana

The cold war ended in 1991 and started again around 2007

Overall this video was very informative and educational and I would recommend it to other people. Although historically accurate, there is a very clear and obvious western bias that cannot be overlooked, although craftily subtle. For example, the Angola communist takeover is mentioned briefly, but the unofficial NATO membership of apartheid South Africa and its role in protecting US/NATO interests in Southern Africa against anti-colonial communist insurrection is completely omitted, even though it was a massively relevant aspect of the latter half of the cold war.
