3rd hr- A time period between the mid 1940’s to the early 1990’ in which the US and Soviet Union were at a point of tension with each country making threats towards each other involving nuclear warfare. The point of conflict that led to the nuclear threats were conflicting ideas on how governing should be done, communistically or with capitalism. The war ended with the fall of the Soviet Union.
6th hr-The cold war was a standoff between the US and the Soviet Union post world war II to determine who was going to be the dominant world power.

The Butter Battle Book is one of the more overt and astute instances of Geisel’s marriage of political and social sentiment with his children’s books. In it, Geisel creates an imaginary world that parallels the arms race of the Cold War, replete with instances of Conflict Escalationand Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD). The beauty of the work is that, in the context of a children’s book, the behaviour of America and Russia is shown to be utterly absurd, which of course, it is.
