All The Contemporary World

1945 to the present, matching this atlas's own Contemporary Period era exactly: decolonization-era conflicts and uprisings, the mid-century genocides and famines, the Cold War's proxy wars, the postwar economic and financial crises from Bretton Woods to the Asian Financial Crisis, the fall of the Berlin Wall, the Digital Revolution, and the September 11 attacks. Belongs here: an event primarily dated 1945 or later, or tied to this band by a live In Era relationship already recorded on the entity. Does not belong here: an event dated before 1945, grouped under The Age of Extremes or an earlier band by its own date.
