Chapter 22 (pp. 675-689)

In this Chapter 22 it is based on the Cold War. The Cold War happened right after World War 2. This war was between the Soviet Union and the United States. This war was rather weird. It was weird because Cold War meant that there is not fighting but in this particular was there was fighting involved. During the time of the Cold War Joseph Stalin was the leader of the Soviet Union and he believed in communism. Communism was something small that turned into something big. It was around the 20th when communism collapsed. It was collapsed because the leaders between the cold war didn't have any interest what so ever. To be honest I thought out of all wars this war was the most interesting. It was the most interesting because it was a unique war which wasn't suppose to include fighting but both sides broke the rule and did fight to get what they deserve.

Chapter 20

During 1750-1900 the European Colonial Conquest was manily focused on  Asia and Afirca. There was two waves during this colonialization. The second wave European Empires was founded by military use of the threat of it. These was surely easy places to conquer but there was also the difficult ones. The hardest places to conquer were the ones who didn't have a central society in any way. European settlement was a big disaster. It spread lots of disease to places such as New Zealand. All in all during this time it was a big disaster. It was not only a disaster to the places I mentioned but also other parts of the world.
