U.S. History: May 13-17

This week we will finish our investigation of WWII, then we will begin discussing the post-war world. We will investigate the Yalta Conference and the division of Germany; a major event leading to the beginning of the Cold War. We will discuss the early years of the Cold War as well as the anxiety created by the possible use of atomic and nuclear bombs. We will also investigate the use of propaganda by the United States as a way to battle against communism. We will discuss the emergence of the United States & the Soviet Union as superpowers, and how their influence shaped global politics for years to come.
