Soviet Socks
Description: The Cold War was a period of geopolitical tension between the Soviet Union and the United States and their respective allies, the Eastern Bloc and the Western Bloc, after World War II. Historians do not fully agree on the dates, but the period is generally considered to span the 1947 Truman Doctrine to the 1991 dissolution of the Soviet Union. The term "cold" is used because there was no large-scale fighting directly between the two superpowers, but they each supported major regional conflicts known as proxy wars.
Description: CCCP Interkosmos Sunrise Design Inspired in old badges from Soviet Union Space Programs. The Interkosmos crest. Interkosmos (Russian: Интеркосмос) was a Soviet space program, designed to help the Soviet Union's allies with crewed and uncrewed space missions. The program included the allied east-European nations of the Warsaw Pact, CoMEcon, and other socialist nations like Afghanistan, Cuba, Mongolia, and Vietnam. In addition, pro-Soviet non-aligned nations such as India and Syria participated, and even France and Austria, despite them being capitalist nations.
Description: Meaning "Snowstorm" or "Blizzard" in Russian, the Buran was the Soviet Unions answer to the American Space Shuttle. 1 Orbiter, OK-1K1, made 1 unmanned, orbital flight in 1988.
