Although there are no questions included in this text, we can still provide a short overview of history from 1945 to the present.

In 1945, World War II ended. This meant different things to different areas of the world. In Europe, the war left deep scars that did not heal easily, especially when it came to its economy. In the United States, 1945 represented the beginning of an economic boom, as the US was able to take advantage of the markets not covered by Europe, while at the same time increasing production to help with the rebuilding of the continent. Another power that became stronger after the end of the war was the Soviet Union.

The years that followed WWII are known as the Cold War, as the United States and the Soviet Union fought for control of other countries. Their opposite ideals (capitalism vs. communism) led to enormous conflict. Ultimately, the Cold War diminished in importance during the 1980s and 1990s, as the Soviet Union adopted more capitalist measures. Eventually, the Union would break up and result in the creation of Russia and several other countries.

The years following the end of the Soviet Union saw a complete transformation of communication technology, mostly due to the internet. The creation of the internet, and the popularity of new technological devices (computers, cell phones, etc.) led to a phenomenon known as globalization. Globalization allowed us to be in closer contact to the rest of the world, a process that continues to this day.
