Yes... a cold war. now, maybe you youngin's are all a bit too young to remember the big one o' those, so it around and let ol' pappy Tennej tell you a story.
Now once upon a time, dere be dees two big ol' countries, the United States o' America, and de Soviet Union. They were in one of these here cold wars. But pappy, you ask, how come I ain't never heard o' no battles from this war? Well chilluns, that be because there weren't no open fighting, 'cept in small pockets like Vietnam and Korea. You know, kinder like the PvP and Flashpoints!
