Cold War Simulation


When playing the Cold War in class, there were five teams or "countriess"; USA, USSR, Latin America, Africa and Europe, and Asia and the Middle East. My team was Africa and europe. The objective for the game was for the top two countries "USA, and USSR", to get as many allies as possible, and for the other three countries to get as many assighned points as many possible. Happily, My team won the most amount of points, a total of 115! I was really suprised by this because at the very beging of the class we had the least amount of points. Out of the top two contries, the USSR, won the most allies.

One reason I enjoyed the game, was that it had many realistic features to it, such as miltary, allies, purchusing of countries, and techniques such as brinksmanship. I cant wait till we get to play another one of these games.
