Episode 208 – 1900-1945: Conflict and the Early 20th Century
Description
In this episode you will learn how by 1945, European nation-states are left devastated after the First and Second World Wars, no longer able to maintain control over their far-flung empires, and relying on foreign support to help them rebuild. Political extremism has led to the approximate deaths of 75 million individuals as a result of World Wars I and II. Political revolutions in old states and the world wars have resulted in their demise and authoritarian forms of communism begin to emerge and present themselves as a legitimate rivalry to the popular systems of liberal democracy and capitalism found in the West.
