For some analysts, the cold war was considered to be the 3rd world war.

The US and USSR never unleashed at each other, but there was an awful lot of violence around the world. Korea, Vietnam, and Afghanistan were Cold War battles- pretty hot. To a degree, so were the 1967 and 73 Arab/Israeli wars, although rooted in the West/Islam struggle and not the Capitalism/Communism struggle. Were it not for the USA and USSR arming their two sides, the wars would have been much more limited in scope. The Cuban revolution and the Bay of Pigs, the Hungarian civilians crushed under Russian tanks in 1959 and the Czechs in 1968, all part of World War 3.
