So, I got stuck writing a research paper on any event I choose from the Modern Age ( 1914 through 1946 ). However, I am completely at a loss for what to write about, any advice would be greatly appreciated :).

Hmmm...
Something I always found interesting was the social and political upheaval that occurred in Germany from the end of World War I to the start of World War II. There's a lot to research on that.
WWI?
The begginning of fascism and nazism later?
The October revolution in Russia?
I herd we set up sum1 a bomb or sometthin like that in the 15th century or something you shoudl right about that.
Don't get me wrong, the thought of both WWI and WWII crossed my mind, yet, it just seems like such an obvious choice. I kind of wanted something a little more... unique.
Well, you could write about changes in art, like literature, music, etc. But that would be pretty tricky.Quote:

You could write about how pimpin' the 1920s were. Rollin' like Gatsby.
Or some obscure thing, like I quickly looked at the Wikipedia article for the 1920s, and there's some war I've never heard about (or at least can't remember):

Edit: Or something that would be cool would be to examine the use of cartoons as propaganda in wartime. For example, in my history class last week we watched this Donald Duck cartoon from WWII, and I thought it was hilarious.
Thanks for all the ideas everyone. Regardless of what I choose, I definitely need to find a way to incorporate those cartoons though >_> Man those are great.
