Description
Twentieth century Europe saw periods of great upheaval. There was World War I, the Spanish Civil War, and World
War II. After the latter, Europe found itself divided by the Cold War and continued racial/ethnic divisions which found
expression in smaller confrontations, which were deadly. Throughout all of these conflicts, or as a result of them,
new political and economic institutions emerged. As grim as all of this sounds there were also major transformations
in architecture, literature, music, the arts and political rights.
