"Cuban Missile Crisis"

There is a very commonly known event during the Cold War called the Cuban Missile Crisis and it is very known because it was the closet point of the Cold War where the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. got into a nuclear war. The crisis all began from the hated dictator of Cuba, that the U.S. put in charge, since he was a non-communist. Due to the hatred of the dictator, a rebellion began to overthrow the rule of the dictator and to rise in a new leader. The person who formed the rebellion in Cuba was called Fidel Castro. Castro wanted to support the cuban people, and especially the hard working class of Cuba. He then succeeds in taking power of Cuba and becomes the new leader. As leader, he starts to claim things as Cuban property like trades, supplies, etc., that actually were owned to the U.S.. Meanwhile in the U.S., the American government were angered by this act of rebellion that they send CIA officials to destroy the trading, goods, and supply in Cuba. This angered the Cubans and after many other things the U.S. have tried to do to weaken Cuba, it got Castro to face what he sees a new friend, which is the U.S.S.R.. They have been communicating and have been friendly countries for a while. It wasn't until later when Cuba became communist. President Kennedy did notice the relations between the two communist countries and they did try to invade Cuba to overthrow the Castro regime, but was very very weaken invasion at the Bay of Pigs. The U.S. send very few people to attack, so they drilled tons more people to prepare for an invasion of Cuba. Fidel, worried about another possible and much much bigger invasion faced towards the Soviets for help and the U.S.S.R. responded with giving Cuba nuclear missiles for defense. This was not immediately noticed by the U.S. until they started to spy on Cuba by air. It took them a while, but they eventually find out the Soviets have given Fidel missiles. This was very alarming because the U.S. capital could be nuked easily in 5 mins at anytime. Due to all the tension, the U.S. response with a naval blockage against Fidel. The tension was getting too high that the Soviets and Americans saw this as something they did not want to happen, so the Soviets withdrew the missiles from Cuba and the Americans promised not to invade Cuba. Fidel, in the other case, was very furious of taking away the missiles.
