Why did the US win the Cold War

and how

No one won the cold war in fact a cold war isn't a war that contains violence, instead tension between nations. The tensions were just eased. During 1989 and 1990, the Berlin Wall came down, borders opened, and free elections ousted Communist regimes everywhere in eastern Europe. In late 1991 the Soviet Union itself dissolved into its component republics. With stunning speed, the Iron Curtain was lifted and the Cold War came to an end.
