Cold War


 * For other uses of Cold War, see here.

The Cold War was a term used to denote the tensions between the Capitalist nations of the world (particularly the United States and the United Kingdom) and the Communist nations of the world (particularly the Soviet Union) in which, though the tensions were high, no actual fighting occurred.

Behind the scenes

 * Both Invasion of the Dinosaurs and Robot imply that the Cold War was already over at the time those stories took place. However, in Goth Opera by Paul Cornell, it is noted by Tegan Jovanka, who comes from the year 1981, that in 1994 the Cold War has now ended.
