I put 1848 because of this starting point
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revolutions_of_1848
which pretty much created the modern European political thought

Then of course you have

USA:
>civil war (1860)
>Manifest Destiny (1870-1890)
>Industrial Revolution (1890-1910)
>Establishment as a world power (1910-1930s)
>Hollywood, radio, "celebrity" culture (1920s)
>Atomic weaponry

Europe:
>German unification
>Philosophy
>Victorian Era
>Imperialism
>Scientific Revolution (airplanes, electricity, trains, engines, rocketry, modern medicine, physics, chemistry, automobile, photography, etc)
>Workers rights
>Pax Britannic
>too much to name
>>

I think going to 1970 is better because of a few reasons but on it's own decolonisation was extremely influential on the modern world
>>
>>1207447
>Industrial Revolution (1890-1910)
pretty sure that started much earlier...
>>
>>1207458
>decolonisation was extremely influential on the modern world
This. The decade after the Year of Africa decided the fate of several continents.
>>
>>1207447
>>Manifest Destiny (1870-1890)
i thought Manifest Destiny was shit like the Mexican War
>>
>>1207462
There were more than one, and America was late to it compared to Europe.

Still, it would honestly be better to describe that period as the Gilded Age.
