NATO and The Warsaw Pact

NATO was an organization between North America and Europe formed during The Cold War. The "Big Idea" for the formation of NATO was so that countries involved, had the right of a mutual defense alliance. A Mutual Defense Alliance is very similar to a gang. If one country is attacked, the Mutual Defense Alliance allowed all the other counties in NATO to aid them. Very similar to NATO, Soviet Union decided to make the Warsaw Pact as a response. The Warsaw Pact gained control of many European countries. By gaining these countries, the Soviet Union attracted many foreign citizens to its strong military and political force. Though the Warsaw Pact gained control of many countries and attracted many, NATO's Technology was just too advanced. In the year 1991, the Warsaw Pact was labeled nonexistent.
