Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The United States, a Western European settler colony in North America, emerged from World War II as the most powerful state on Earth. The country came to represent and champion revolutionary, democratic ideals, but internally, things were much more complicated. #2 The American people were proud of their country after World War II, as they had stood up to an entirely evil system and had won. #3 The Soviet Union was the second most-powerful country in 1945, after the United States. However, the Soviets had suffered massive losses during the war, and their population was decimated. They were also far weaker than the United States in every way that counts. #4 The Third World was the term used to describe the majority of the world’s population, who lived under the control of European colonialism in the 1950s.
