Features: The history of the 20th century is a peculiar history. Things that had never happened in previous centuries occurred in this 100 years: in less than 50 years, human society experienced two world wars. Both world wars profoundly changed the world at the time, accompanied by the decline and collapse of decadent empires and powers, the birth of new nations, the emergence of new international forces, and the formation of a new international landscape. There is no reason to doubt that it was a earth-shattering and thrilling century. This book comprehensively discusses the history of the first and second world wars, providing a comprehensive introduction to the brewing, outbreak, and entire course of the two wars, recreating important battles and the complex international relations during wartime. The book also analyzes and compares the impact of the two wars on the post-war international situation.
