Part 3 - Cold War Crises (The Cold War)

<ul>
	<li>Diplomatic Approach: Supported neutrality towards European conflicts. Think of it as the US trying to avoid drama in school, staying out of European &ldquo;friendship fights.&rdquo;</li>
	<li>US &amp; League of Nations: Kind of like that club everyone joined but the US? They didn&#39;t. So, the US was not a part of it.</li>
	<li>Tensions in 1930s: Europe and Asia are becoming &quot;tension central.&quot; Think of it as the storm clouds gathering, and the US is getting more umbrellas (increasing efforts) to remain neutral.</li>
	<li>US Neutrality Acts: They had rules to keep them out of European affairs. Think of it as a strict parent saying, &quot;Do not go out after 10 PM!&quot; Check out more in Case Study 1.</li>
</ul>

<ul>
	<li>Europe at War: Just when you thought the drama couldn&rsquo;t escalate, Europe goes full-on World War. US? They said, &ldquo;We&#39;re neutral.&rdquo;</li>
	<li>However! Plot Twist: In 1939, President Franklin Roosevelt did a little rule-changing. Imagine if you could only shop online, but then you&#39;re allowed to shop in-store too. Belligerent countries (countries at war) could now buy from the US and ship items themselves.</li>
</ul>

<ul>
	<li>Nazi-Soviet Pact: The unexpected duo! They decided how to split Poland between them. Stalin&rsquo;s shopping spree included taking the Baltic States and a &quot;visit&quot; to Finland.</li>
	<li>The Phoney War: A period where, ironically, not much war stuff happened in the West. It&#39;s like that tense quiet in a movie before the action kicks in.</li>
	<li>Germany&#39;s Expansion Tour
	<ul>
		<li>Denmark and Norway: 🇩🇰🇳🇴 Kind of like securing a VIP backstage pass to a concert &ndash; Germany wanted access to Swedish iron ore. Plus, now they got a special sea route. VIP treatment, huh?</li>
		<li>British Politics: The UK had a &ldquo;change in management&rdquo;. Chamberlain out, Winston Churchill in. Imagine a football team getting a new coach right before the big game.</li>
		<li>Germany&#39;s Surprise Party: Surprise attacks on Holland and Belgium and a sneaky entrance into France through the Ardennes (Think: sneaking through the backyard instead of the front door).</li>
		<li>The Big Oops Moment: Holland, Belgium? Surrendered. And British and French troops? Trapped in Dunkirk by the Germans. Imagine being caught in a surprise test and trying to sneak peeks at your friend&#39;s paper!</li>
		<li>Operation Dynamo: The super cool code name for the &quot;Let&#39;s get our troops out of Dunkirk!&quot; plan.</li>
	</ul>
	</li>
</ul>

<ul>
	<li>US Neutrality: It&#39;s like having a friend group drama in school, but you decide to wear headphones and focus on your homework.</li>
	<li>Phoney War: It&#39;s like waiting for the climax in a thriller movie, you know something&#39;s coming, but there&#39;s just suspense.</li>
	<li>Dynamo: Ever had to organize a last-minute party evacuation because parents came home early? That&#39;s Operation Dynamo, but more intense and military.</li>
</ul>
