What happened during the end of cold war?

The end of the cold war in 1989-1990 made the world an even more complex place, with the contradictory implications for American power and U.S. foreign policy. Thus far, two post-cold war global trends have been most important for the contemporary and future politics of U.S. foreign policy, the collapse of communism and the rise of globalization and the continuation of global conflicts, crises, and wars. The collapse of communism in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe has resulted in a single, integrated international political economy of growing interdependence and complexity. The Cold War’s end led to a world of greater complexity, where global issues proliferated and power became more diffused. The end of the cold war also gave rise to the proliferation of global conflicts, crises, and wars, and lots of future insurgencies. Examples are disputes arising from traditional rivalries and state boundaries such as in the Middle East and between India and Pakistan, and changes in the power and influence of state actors, such as in China, Russia, and the EU.
