Sneak Peek & Video Title Poll

I voted for "The World After World War II" because a lot went on in the world during the second half of the Twentieth Century. There is the cold war of course, but also as Blue said decolonization. The rise of the EU, NAFTA, Globalization, etc. Women became more prevalent in the work place. Computers, GPS, jets, cell phone, Internet, and the inter-state highway system. It is mind numbing really.

Craig T. White

This is also excellent :).

You did not do a dumb :). I voted for “The World After The War”, because it sounds like the thesis of your video is how WWII (and the historical processes that proceeded directly from it, ex. the Cold War & the process of decolonization) essentially defined the world order we’ve been living in 1946-now. One that appears to be coming to an end. Would’ve picked “How WWII Created the Modern Era”, except no one agrees on when “modernity” started or ended. (In my field, “modern” = ~1945-1989, “postmodern” = ~1970-maybe 2010?, and “contemporary” = ~2000/2008-present. Depending on who you ask :).)

Cold War but from a Third World perspective where the main powers are just getting all up in everyone’s asses and you just wanna be left alone goddamn it

Alternatively (depending on how pessimistic the video is) WORLD WAR 3: The Back Story.

Modern history sumerised: Empires to Superpowers.

Tricky since you wish to sum it up, but the Cold War almost immediately began WW2's dust settled.

If you wanted a fairly dramatic title, You could use my boy churchills quote. And call it history summarised, the forging of the iron curtain.

History Summarized: Aftermath of WWII - Setting Up for a Cold War

Make the title like Rocky and Bullwinkle episode titles. Something like, "The Modern World; or This Isn't My Wheelhouse, I'm Sorry and You're Welcome"

Noel Richardson

Honestly, for the context you're going for, "Aftermath of WWII" is the better title.

Chris Sifniotis

I think either the ‘Cold War and Decolonisation’ or ‘Aftermath of WW2’ fits it best descriptively, probably a ton of artistic/pun titles available too somewhere haha

William Warren

WWII Fallout: War. War *occasionally* changes.
