Assess students' recall of major Cold War events and their dates (1947–1991), covering origins (Truman Doctrine, Marshall Plan), early crises (Berlin Blockade, Korean War), pivotal confrontations (Cuban Missile Crisis, Vietnam War), Soviet interventions (Hungary 1956, Prague Spring 1968, Afghanistan 1979), détente and arms-control milestones (SALT, Helsinki Accords), reform movements (Solidarity), and the endgame (fall of the Berlin Wall, reunification, dissolution of the USSR). Use matching, sequencing, and short date-identification items to test factual memory and chronological awareness.
