From Empires to World War (c. 1800 - 1945)

Welcome to the Late Modern World, a 9 hour megadocumentary taking you across the world after the height of empires to the era of World War, from around 1800 - 1945! We go through the Industrial Revolution and the Long 19th Century in Europe, before taking a trip across the pond to the Latin Wars of Independence and the first 120 years of American History. We then head to Southeast Asia, Australia and the Pacific, and Africa, as they deal with New Imperialism. Next, we head to East Asia, where we witness the fall of the Tokugawa in Japan and the Meiji Restoration, and the fall of the Qing Empire in China. We then transition into World War I and the Russian Revolution, and the 1920s, all in full color video. From there, we head back away from Europe in the Interwar period, as we check out the rise of Indian Nationalism, the start of the Chinese Civil War, the making of the Middle East, and age of Latin American dictators. Our last stop is the double-sized World War 2 finale, where we go over the entire history of WWII from the 1930s until 1945. We go over the major events, as well as daily life and culture, to serve as an 'in-depth' overview of the period. It is the spiritual sequel to our Early Modern World (1500 - 1800) megadocumentary, so check that out first if you'd like more background.
