The Modern World to 1920
Notes
The theme of western expansion, imperialism, and colonialism pervades Division VI. The separation of the history of the modern world (c. 1500-c. 1920) into eleven sections reflects conventional regional analyses of modern history, and, within each of those sections, conventional judgments regarding turning-point dates of the regional histories.
