The Impact the Magnetic Compass, Paper, Gunpowder and the Nuclear Arms Race Played in World History

Through this course, I have seen how the advancement of technology plays an important role in the evolving global world. In this article, I will examine concrete progress in two different times and the influence that it has on world encounter. In the early 17th century, I will focus on three technologies, magnetic compass, paper and gunpowder. In the mid-20th century, attention was paid to the nuclear weapons competition between the U.S. and Russia, a superpower in the Cold War era.

Nuclear weapons competition is an arms race competing for the supremacy of the United States of America, the Soviet Union and their respective allies during the Cold War. During this period, in addition to the nuclear weapons of the US and the Soviet Union, other countries have developed nuclear weapons, but no country has created warheads on the scale of two or more superpowers. Until July 24, 1945, after the first successful experiment of nuclear weapons experiments by Stalin, US President Harry Truman informed the Soviet Union of the official announcement of the Manhattan Project at the Stagin Conference. Despite the military alliance with the war, the United States and the UK did not have enough confidence in the Soviet understanding of the German plan for the German spy: as a alliance the Soviet Union has introduced new technical weapons There is also concern that it will demand and expect.

The history that we have been talking about the two world wars where the global conflict called the Cold War is characterized by diplomatic tension and nuclear weapons competition between 1946 and 1989. The United States effectively (or reduces) the standards of modern war by deploying two atomic bombs, Hiroshima and Nagasaki. And they are classified as weapons of mass destruction today. This brutal stagnation made Japan surrender, spurring USSR's arms race competition, and let the observer infer what will happen to the worst in the next world war. The pattern of progress of technology that emerged in the First World War is an informal definition centered on the Third World War, following its sequel and postwar thinking.
