Strayer, Introduction to Part Six and Chapter 21
The Twentieth-Century histories of the Western world, the Communist world, and the Third world, were not only similar but had interesting and interrelated. You could say that there is enough that is new about he Twentieh century to not really treat it as a direct era in history as now, but these conflicts that are about to come up sure do. In world war the assignation of Archduke with no doubt started a huge conflict, especially because during that time Austria was doing well finically and their military growing in mass countries looked a them at a high level on the global scale. When the German, Russian, and Ausrtian empries' collapsed it gave people a new nap for Europens. Then came the rise of the Nazis' led by, none the less, Hitler.

Education has been a key success that Europeans used to their advantage to take power over other communities. Also education has provided a status of rank and also has given an opportunity for people to learn and make better choices based on their values. European culture spread through different cultures especially the clothing style. Religion was also another key factor that transformed identities during the colonial era. Many women and poor groups in African communities found an opportunity to receive more freedoms by being involved in missions.

Strayer, Chapter 20 (p.586-606)
The Industrial Revolution was great because of its accomplishment in success in national wealth and power. Also, the Industrial Revolution can be viewed as a disaster because of the destruction of the environment the downfall of spirituality and relationship between neighbors that lived in the villages. It is important for people to be conscious and understand that some decisions you make can have a big effect and the choices you make could set things into a promising future or into a not so promising future. Women and men also experienced the colonial era differently, western educated classes, peasant farmers etc. The second wave European empires in the Afro-Asian world had military and the threats they could hand out. In the 19th century there was a forced labor that made many young children and adults were victims of the brutal regime in the congo.
