C.The economic integration of Western Europe under Soviet leadership
D.A civil war inside the United Nations Security Council
Explanation: The Cold War was a decades-long contest between the US-led capitalist bloc and the Soviet-led socialist bloc involving arms races, alliances, proxy wars, and ideology, but not a full-scale direct war between the two superpowers.

A.Warsaw Pact
B.NATO

B.Brought the superpowers closest to nuclear war and then led to partial crisis management
C.Created the European Union

A.Tightening total censorship and restoring Stalinist central planning unchanged
B.Opening political discussion and restructuring the Soviet economy and system
C.Immediately annexing Western Europe into the USSR
D.Abolishing all republics and creating a single monarchy

C.Return of a Soviet-led bipolar order
D.Complete disappearance of military power from world politics
