The Cold War, however, was different.

冷战实际上不是战争，不过它是美国和苏联（或后来解体为俄罗斯和其他国家的国家）之间很长一段时间的敌对状态（或互相反感）。
The two countries disagreed on ideology (or ideas about how governments should work).

The United States believed that democracies were the best governments.

The Soviet Union believed that communism was best.

The Cold War began in the mid-1940s and didn't end until the early 1990s.
冷战始于20世纪40年代中期，直至20世纪90年代初才结束。
During that time, the United States and the Soviet Union were the world's superpowers (or most powerful and richest countries).

Many people were scared that the two superpowers would begin to actually fight each other, causing many deaths, but that never happened.
