| | Cold War |
 | | Arguably, the most vivid symbol of the Cold War was the Berlin Wall, isolating West Berlin (the portion controlled by West Germany and allied with France, the United Kingdom and the United States) from East Germany, which completely surrounded it. |
 | | This level of fear faded; however, awareness of the war and its potential consequences was a constant. |
 | | The Cold War also inspired many movie companies and writers, resulting in an enormous number of books and movies, some more fictional (such as James Bond) and some less, in particular Tom Clancy made himself a name as a master of vividly describing the agent and espionage war under the surface. |
