Post Industrial North American Influences North America has influence the world in many different ways. Many changes happened throughout the world after the world war ended. The United States of America had taken part by influencing other countries by expanding their economy, conducting in space exploration, and spreading their culture all over the world.
The period from the end of World War II to the early 1970s was a golden era of American capitalism. $200 billion in war bonds matured, and the G.I. Bill financed a well-educated work force. The US underwent its own golden age of economic growth. This growth was distributed fairly evenly across the economic classes. Much of the growth came from the movement of low income farm workers into better paying jobs in the towns and cities.
Space exploration has also been a challenge between countries. They compete with each other to see who can create an object that allows them to travel or to see in outer space. Space exploration has brought the world together. We have an International Space Station. Though the actual amount of countries that have went into space is relatively small. The amount of money actually spent in space travel is high to some, but low to others. Overall it would cost tons of money in order for it to be happen.
The culture of the United States is primarily Western, but is influenced by Native American, African, Asian, Polynesian, and Latin American cultures. A strand of what may be described as American culture started its formation over 10,000 years ago with the migration of Paleo-Indians from Asia, as well as from Oceania and Europe, into the region that is today the continental United States. The United States of America has its own unique social and cultural characteristics such as dialect, music, arts, social habits, cuisine, and folklore. The United States of America is an ethnically and racially diverse country as a result of large-scale migration from many ethnically and racially different countries throughout its history as well as differing birth and death rates among natives, settlers, and immigrants.
In conclusion, the post-industrial influences by North America, mainly the United States, had influence other countries by economic growth, conducting space exploration, and their wide spread of culture. These influences changed the world and it also affects the people by changing their lifestyle or the way they live. It all started to happen after the world war ended.
