Now know how America became everything in the worldBigger super power than…
After the end of the Second World War in 1945, almost all the big countries of Europe had become completely weak economically and strategically. Whereas other big countries of the world were already slaves of these European countries or were embroiled in conflict. Only two powerful countries, USSR or Soviet Union (today’s Russia) and America were in a strong position at this time. While USSR had a communist government, America was a supporter of capitalism.
In 1947, the race between America and the USSR to become the world’s largest super power started. Both countries tried to surpass each other strategically, economically, politically and ideologically. American businessman Bernard Baruch named this mutual dispute as Cold War.
There was no direct war between America and USSR in the Cold War, rather they intervened in the wars of other countries.
During the Cold War, America and the USSR did not trust each other at all. Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev and US President Nixon drinking champagne at a program.
US created NATO and USSR created Warsaw Pact
Where American and European countries formed a military alliance in 1949 to stop the USSR, which was named NATO. To counter this, the Soviet Union created the Warsaw Treaty Organization (Warsaw Pact) in 1955.
To put pressure on the USSR, America made military agreements with many countries like Japan, South Korea, Saudi Arabia and South Vietnam and provided military help to them. In response, the USSR gave open military support to America’s Cuba. The Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962 brought the two countries to the brink of nuclear war.
According to the Council on Foreign Relations, under the San Francisco Treaty in 1951, American soldiers were allowed to stay in Japan. Similarly, in the Vietnam War that started in 1955, America supported South Vietnam, while the USSR supported North Vietnam.
In October 1962, US President John F. Kennedy addressed the entire nation on TV and informed about the Cuban Missile Crisis. He also expressed the fear of nuclear war. Source: time.com
Made an agreement with Saudi to sell oil only in dollars
On June 8, 1974, America signed the Petro Dollar System Agreement with Saudi Arabia. According to Bloomberg, under this deal, Saudi Arabia could sell its oil only in US dollars. In return, Saudi Arabia got military protection from America.
Afghanistan was ruled by the Soviet Union from 1979 to 1989. To challenge it, America created Taliban by giving money and weapons to Pakistan and Afghan fighters (Mujahideen). Ultimately these Mujahideen drove the Soviet Army from Afghanistan.
After the collapse of USSR, US became the only super power
Facing external and internal challenges, the USSR collapsed on 25 December 1991. With this the cold war that had been going on for 46 years came to an end. Author Francis Fukuyama wrote the book ‘The End of History and the Last Man’ on this incident in 1992. Fukuyama said that after the collapse of the USSR, Western liberal democracy will be completely spread in the world.
After the collapse of the USSR, America was the only super power left in the world. However, in the last few decades, China’s rapid economic rise has challenged America’s monopoly rule on a large scale.
More than 750 US military bases around the world
According to Aljazeera, as of 2021, America had about 750 military bases in 80 countries of the world. Japan has the maximum number of 120 military bases. After this comes Germany (119) and South Korea (73).
