The trends of world don't change if there is no big incident takes place. After reading the previous history of the world, I see that the big trends of the world changed only after a big issue happened there. Recently I have read a very informative books about world politics of previous century. The name of that book is ,''100 years of world politics.'' written by Late Tarek Shamsur Rehman, a well known and very famous writter here in Bangladesh.
He has described the history of previous century in political view. He described about all big issue took place in the previous history. While reading that books, a very unusual question cross my mind. There are some big events in previous century to affect the whole world. But which incident have affected the world most?
Now let's take a a glimpse of focus on the list of big issues happened in previous century. After dethrowned the last free sultan of great Ottoman Empire Sultan Abdul Hamid Khan at 1908, 1st world war broke out at 1914. And the consequence of the war was too much brutal on us, particularly on the muslim community as the Khilafah system was removed which was continuning almost 1300 years to keep unite the Muslim from all over the world. In the midst of 1st world war, socialistic movement were broke out at 1917 in then Soviet Union, And this socialistic movement affected a lot this world in previous century. After the world war 1, England become the only super power. But After a while, there broke out 2nd world war. USA emerged as the super power. People for the first time saw the destruction of atomic bomb.
At 1947, the most invalid state was established at Palestine. The problem started with the establishing of Israel, yet not stopped. There broke out four time Arab-Israel war on this issue. Already there started another socialistic movement in China. There was a lot of differences between the socialistic movement of China and Soviet Union.
Obviously this era was the time of cold war between capitalism and socilaism. COldd war may be the longest issue happened in last century. Among all of these event, I must have to say about the gulf war that took place at the last moment of the previous century. Another important issue is at Afganistan. Soviet attack on Russia, Ups and downs of Afgan Muzahiden and then Taliban had also a big effect on this present world. May be the last big issue happened in previous century is the falling of great socilistic country Soviet Union at 1991.
Anyway, after reading that book I have mentioned at the top, I am thinking which incident has affected the world most? What do you think about it? What will be your answer on this?
