The world was in WW II.
-------------
Crisis is the norm. The condition of the world is as stable (or unstable) as any other decade.
World War I in the teens
Depression in the 20s and 30s
WW II in the 30s and 40s
Korea/US in the 50s
US/USSR/Cuban Missile Crisis in the 60s
Vietnam/US in the 70s
Breakup of the USSR in the late 80s and early 90s
Gulf war in the 90s
That's just a start. Make your own list. It's fun ;-)
LOTS more where that came from.
