Using The Cold War mind maps

These maps organise topics into branches, so you can follow connections between events, people and ideas. They cover opposing ideologies, the Cuban Missile Crisis, détente and the disintegration of the USSR. Other maps focus on the Berlin Crisis, the arms race and the Space Race.

For a focused start, try The Cuban Missile Crisis. Its branches cover tensions, escalation, resolution and aftermath, giving you a structure for reviewing that crisis. If you want to look at the end of the conflict instead, The Disintegration of the USSR includes a branch on the nationalities problem.

Revise with a map

Read the main branches first, then cover them and see which connections you can recall. Return to the map to check what you missed. You can also compare maps on related topics, such as The Berlin Crisis and Berlin Blockade.

When you want to check your recall through questions, switch to a quiz on the unit page. Choose a map that fits the topic you are studying.
