Hiya I was also is this boat earlier this year but here my advice and I hope it works xx
Cold War is mainly dates/events with
When it happened?
Where/What it happened?
Consequences? Whether it be good or bad
Main one to use is to usually talk abt tensions or relationships
You could make flashcards like this and also do one with the dates. As cold War is all abt order especially the narrative account where chronological order is essential!
I recommend watching YouTube videos that do a quick summary recap so you can refresh over things and see what's important. If you would like i will put a person I recommend. As I would need to find them.
Good luck xx
