The 20th century was a period of major political upheavals, marked by two devastating world wars, the rise and fall of totalitarian regimes (fascism, Nazism, communism), and the Cold War between the Eastern and Western blocs. This century also witnessed decolonization, the emergence of new powers, and significant advancements in human rights, but also ideological conflicts and large-scale genocides.
