NATO and The Warsaw Pact

The North Atlantic Treaty Organization was an alliance organization of the United States, Western Europe and Canada. All of the 12 nations had agreed to protect each other so that communism would not spread further more. NATO did not want the idea of Communism going to other countries and taking over the world so for that to happen NATO made sure that the other countries would disagree with communism. The Warsaw Pact is a soviet version of the NATO which would promise that they would protect the Communist countries from the Western attack. The Soviet's created the Warsaw Pact because the Soviets were scared of the NATO.
