Question

What are the effects of world war 2?

Answer 1

As a result of World War II, several things changed. One thing that changed was that we now entered the atomic age. When the atomic bombs were dropped on Japan, a new military element and threat were introduced to the world. People now lived in fear of possible nuclear attack. Another change was the development of the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union. There would be conflicts and confrontations between these two countries over the next 45 years as a result of the Cold War.

A final effect of World War II was that countries with democratic governments are able to respond to serious crises. We proved that it isn’t necessary to turn to a dictator when times are bad. Our response to the threat presented by World War II showed that democratic government does work.
