UN was formed, Israel was declared a state, Germany became east and west, NATO and Warsaw Pact countries created the "Iron curtain". Jet technology was utilized across the board, Korean War, Japan was relegated to only having a "police force" instead of a military. McCarthyism and overblown fear of communists in America, Nuremburg trials, and there are quite abit more if you look closely
Oh yes, I saw someone mention the sports stuff, and the corvette came out in 53.

Can you give more information on what exactly you are looking for? And I wouldn't say that all Germans or possible Germans where deported, that's a a bit of a stretch.

Establishment of the United Nations was one. Also... Korean War? Cold War? I'm not too sure, I'm a little rusty with history.
