Description

If someone asked how well you know World War II, would you say you're well-educated?

What if you were asked to identify every way it has shaped our current reality, right down to international geography?

Are you curious about the little-known ripple effects that dictate the world you grew up in?

The Immediate Aftermath of World War II offers the most in-depth history lesson still relevant today: the rise of America as a superpower, the downfall of European powers, and the dramatic change of the modern world into two radically different sects.

The obvious is true that the war temporarily destroyed and forever changed our world.

You already know that World War II was the most pivotal event in history -- economically, politically, socially, and militaristically.

What many don't know is that even after the Paris Peace Treaties were signed, the lasting effects of the war would impact everything from the development of nuclear powers and the Cold War to the creation of new countries and boundary lines.

WWII forever changed what it means to go to war. After putting down this book, you'll understand exactly why.

Inside The Immediate Aftermath of World War II, you'll discover:

• How the Cold War split the world into two factions and formed new, powerful alliances, creating Red Scare paranoia about communist infiltration in the West.

• What the Soviet Union did to rise to power and remain there, spreading communism throughout Europe and invading the Eastern world to create influence.

• The changing of the Middle East's borders, creating the state of Israel, and leading the Arab-Israel wars.

• The dawn of the Atomic Age and how the development of nuclear bombs began as a fearmongering campaign and snowballed into a full-on arms race.

• How exactly NATO came to be, and the Soviet Union's pact in response created the separation of the world into two opposing blocs and caused the crystallization of today's power dynamics.

• The events leading up to the Korean and Vietnam Wars and how the U.S.'s changing military landscape and priorities led to these infiltrations.

• How the American Empire became a global superpower, resulting in the military occupation of international lands and the subsequent idea of the U.S. as the police officer of the world.
... plus the nitty-gritty details of the ideological and arms-based power struggles everywhere, from Latin America to Japan.

It's obvious just how impactful WWII was, but the real impact is never-ending.

It's time for the no-holds-barred education on how the war completely shaped modern history in The Immediate Aftermath of World War II. Get your complete history lesson today!
