Between 1914 and 1945, there were numerous scientific advances that had a significant impact on the era's politics and culture.
One of the most notable scientific advances during this time was the development of nuclear technology. In 1938, German scientists Otto Hahn and Fritz Strassmann discovered nuclear fission, which ultimately led to the development of the atomic bomb. This scientific breakthrough had a profound impact on the politics of the era, as it ultimately led to the use of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945, effectively ending World War II. The development of nuclear technology also had a lasting impact on the culture of the era, as it sparked widespread fear and anxiety about the potential for nuclear warfare and the destructive power of atomic weapons.
Another significant scientific advance during this time was the development of antibiotics. In 1928, Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin, the first antibiotic drug. This discovery revolutionized medicine and had a profound impact on public health, leading to a significant reduction in mortality rates from infectious diseases. The development of antibiotics also had a direct impact on the politics and culture of the era, as it contributed to the overall improvement of public health and the quality of life, leading to a more optimistic and hopeful outlook on the future.
Additionally, the period between 1914 and 1945 saw significant advancements in aviation technology, including the development of the first commercial airliners and the first successful jet engine. These advancements had a direct impact on the politics and culture of the era, as they facilitated greater global connectivity and communication, leading to increased international trade and cultural exchange.
In conclusion, the scientific advances made between 1914 and 1945 had a profound impact on the era's politics and culture. From the development of nuclear technology to the discovery of antibiotics and advancements in aviation, these scientific breakthroughs shaped the course of history and influenced the way people lived, thought, and interacted with one another.
