The war mainly consisted of assumed and implied threats of nuclear attacks and political control over states in Europe. Even before 1945, the beginning of the Cold War, tension brewed between the U.S and the U.S.S.R. Both sides had differing views on Europe

After Germany surrendered on May 7, 1945, in order to insure Germany would not come to power again, Germany and Berlin were divided among the four major powers of the Allies: France, Britain, America, and the U.S.S.R. Unlike Russia, who planned to destroy Germany so they could not attack
