Introduction: The Neorealist theory
Kenneth Waltz in his book «Theory of International Politics» introduced the idea of neorealist theory. The theory can determine a state behavior and state interaction by using the structure. This structure is defined by the complex of some principles of the international system such as anarchy and the states' capabilities. Not only military power and the ability to use it with regard to other states are significant in the neorealism theory but also the combination of states' capabilities is one main part of this theory in International Relation.

There were two states, the Soviet Union and the United States, who had superiority in the world in the end of the Second World War. Domination over the weak is a normal thing for neorealism theory. It is clear that opposition of the USSR and the United States was reflected in the Korean War, even in atomic bomb in Hiroshima and Nagasaki and also in the confrontation of the Western and Eastern Germanies in time of the Cold War. These places was an amazing place from the explanation of the neorealism theory because of fact that both of sides minimized loses and maximized benefit. Surely, it was not a usual war it was just a one of stages of the Cold War where no American, no Russian government did not lose any soldiers and just and the wall became a symbol of the Cold War.
