The North Atlantic Treaty Organization, also known as The NATO pact was and intergovernmental joining of military forces in case of any foreign attacks. So for example lets say someone attacked the US, Canada would be able to back us up because Canada is apart of NATO like us. Since NATO was formed during the cold war to stop communism from spreading there was fear in Russia so they made an alliance like us.
The Warsaw pact is a similar treaty where the 8 communist countries in Europe signed a treaty where they will be there for each other in case of an attack from a foreign nation. This was made after the NATO was created to stop communism spreading.
The ones who created NATO were France, United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Portugal, Italy, Norway, Denmark, and Iceland The USSR and 8 other communist countries were the ones who created Warsaw.
