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...

>decolonisation was extremely influential on the modern world
This. The decade after the Year of Africa decided the fate of several continents.

>>Manifest Destiny (1870-1890)
i thought Manifest Destiny was shit like the Mexican War

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.
