The events & people that shaped the 20th Century
The 20th century was marked by several significant events that had a profound impact on humanity. It started with World War I, which resulted in the death of millions and changed the global political landscape. The Great Depression in the 1930s saw a severe economic downturn that lasted for several years and affected people worldwide. World War II followed, resulting in the Holocaust and the use of atomic bombs. The Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union led to the arms race and a tense global political climate. The end of the century saw the fall of the Soviet Union, the rise of globalization and the digital age, and the events of September 11, 2001, which led to the War on Terror. The 20th century's legacy is still felt today, shaping our understanding of the world and the challenges we face as a global community.
