The Cold War was decades of tension between two superpowers who never fought each other directly. An iron curtain divided Europe into rival blocs, and a wall split one city in two. Both sides built up an arms race of missiles while a satellite watched from orbit. Spies traded secrets, propaganda shaped opinion at home, and officials sometimes chose to defect. Occasional summits eased the pressure. This word puzzle gathers eleven terms from the era.
