What are ten major world wide events that have influenced the United States in the last twenty years?

Question

Yes I guess it is a homework assingment but I just need ideas!!!

Answer 1

1. Berlin Wall comes down.
2. Collapse of the USSR
3. The controversy in Tianneman Square
4. The Gulf War
5. The Oklahoma City Bombing
6. The first explosion of the World Trade Center in the garage level in 1993
7. North Korea and Iran and their nuclear capabilities expanding
8. the events in Bosnia-Herzegovnia;Serbia;and Montenegro or the former Yugoslavia
9. Ofcourse we will never forget 9-11-2001
10.Operation Iraqi freedom and forces in Afghanistan
11. Advancement of the Asian market specifically the economic growth in China making it an even more international economy.

Answer 2

1. The internet- new restrictions and need for better security

2. WAR ON TERROR!- since 2001, this has been America's main focus

3. FALL OF SOVIET UNION!!!!!
-This one is the biggest. The reason that the US assumes leadership in every conflict in the world is because the USSR, our only rival, fell.

4. Revival of socialism in Western countries, especially in Europe. The US has become much more lenient when dealing with/allowing socialism, unlike the extreme anti-socialism that occured during the Cold War.

5. Rising oil prices- caused a deeper interest in the Mid-East and international relations there

6. Global warming, for obvious reasons

That's all I could think of. There are others, such as 9/11 and the war in Iraq (obviously) but that was not world wide and really only affected N. America, Europe, and the Mid-East. Hope this helps!

Answer 3

My list of events would include the following:
Global warming and environmental awareness
The political situation in the Middle East
The Gulf War of 1991
The end of the Berlin Wall
The death of Pope John Paul II
Stem-cell research as a means of curing uncurable disease
Cloning
Bill Gates and Microsoft
Rise in carnage in our educational institutions

Answer 4

The Internet. = Helping millions of lonely people find porn.
9/11 = easy
Fall of the USSR = easy
Gas and the Environment
Persian Gulf War I = Easy

There's 5. Internet is the best answer too.

Answer 5

i do no longer see that clothing. I see a superb, proficient, humorous guy. i admire ya basically the style you're, ((((((((((Jack)))))))))). No faith, no affliction can exchange that. And, to be honest, i do no longer supply a rat's asss what any faith has to assert approximately HIV - or homosexuality. So, i'm no longer able to truly say how this is been inspired by using it. usual, faith keeps to be time-honored in an afternoon and age whilst humanity could be previous such archaic thinking because of the fact human beings like to have an excuse to choose others - a minimum of, it incredibly is suited to the Abrahamic religions. And, I say "screw 'em".
