NATO And The Warsaw Pact

The Warsaw Pact was an organazation of central and Eastern European Communist States.This pact consisted mostly of the Soviet Union and its satellite countries. It was established on May 1, 1955 in Poland. Nato was an organazation that includes countries in Europe and North America. The reason for this was that the countries involved wanted a mutual defence alliance so that if one of them were attacked all of the other countries would come to thier side. The Europeans and the Soviet Union formed these organazations so that they would feel that they had help from other countries if needed.
