Question:

HElp! Iron CUrtain?

What is the iron curtain?how can i draw a political cartoon on it?

Answer:

The term iron curtain was coined by Winston Churchill in a 1946 speech. He used it to describe the division of Europe between the free west and Soviet controlled east. Maybe you could draw theater curtains descending behind Churchill or on top of Germany.
The iron curtain was a name for the area that separated the communist nations of Europe and the non-communist nations of Europe, that was given by Winston Church Hill in 1946. It divided Eastern Europe (in which they were communist allies to the Soviet Union) It was used to stop the spread of soviet expansion and communism. It really depends on what period your doing. If your doing the fall of the Iron Curtain in the late 1980's and the early 1990's. These are approximate dates, but it could be people who are reaching out from behind a wall or something similar to the iron curtain. Maybe you can have it being put up by politicians in Eastern Europe during the mid-1940's. Like I said before. It depends on what time period your doing.
