Chapter 20 (2 world wars)

The two world wars changed human kind in many ways. Many people during the twentieth century tried to over take countries or even attempted to exterminate a group of people. For example, Hitler tried to exterminate the Jews in the Holocaust. This was one of the worst things marked in history that happened. During this time, many countries were scared to be attacked and lose. The U.S. was one of the countries that began to test and develop bombs that would demolish anything for miles. They successfully dropped two atomic bombs on Japanese cities. This was another change in history, because not only did this kill off a whole city, but it made it unlivable after due to the radiation it spread. The early twentieth century and the two world wars were times where it must have felt like hell. So many countries and leaders were coming up with ideas to end one another, and the U.S. was the one who basically stopped everything due to its development of such a strong bomb. I'm glad I wasn't part of such a terrifying time, but a time where all the nations come together now and make decisions for everyone's good.
