World in 1946 - Cold War Documentary

Saving fabric from women's swim wear was an honorable sacrifice.

[@macroxela]

So we can thank the French and shortage of fabrics for the bikini

crazy how east asia went to war and japan stayed out thanks to their heavy war during WW2! The Chinese Civil War, The Korean War, and most notably, the Vietnam War, all four east asian countries, all went to war and were all happening within the same 20 year period

[@yehoshua8160]

I like to think the bikini was the REAL start of the cold war

[@Tzar1]

@lati long Wow, never realised the bikini had an intresting history

[@CamoHunt8]

Love this format, would love to see more general year videos to contextualise the cold war and its crises.

[@manuelvirgulti6757]

Great overview of 1946, however you missed Italy becoming a republic (2nd of June 1946)

[@leopoldopetrieska6564]

the bikini was invented... a great year for mankind

[@brandon074]

IMO, the second greatest invention of all time. The first, the invention of the wheel.

[@gabrielcaballero4817]

My mind immediately went to the Turkish Straits crisis and Iran crisis of 1946, probably the earliest diplomatic crisis of the cold war

[@MrApollonio]

Wow!! I also love this format, general and contextualized overview!! It would be so great if you could do year-by-year overviews - it would serve as a great tool to make us able to understand the inter-context of the world events. Keep up great work :) !

[@Patrick_3751]

A great overview of 1946! There were certainly a few events that were left out (cough Philippine independence cough), but you guys did a great job of illustrating how the first "year of peace" had a lot of hope, optimism, relief, and uncertainty. I think this should be a recurring segment for subsequent years, especially the one that have been "overlooked."

It's interesting you forgot to mention Philippine Independence from the USA in July 4, 1946 after the Philippine Commonwealth ended after 10 years. The USA also pumped $800,000,000 into the Philippine economy via the Bell Trade Act. It became the richest country in the Asian side of the Pacific until the early 70s.

Could you correct the name of the Argentinian president, please? It's Perón with only an "r" and an accent in the "ó". By the way, I was pretty shocked when you talk about him. I mean, I was listening about Stalin, Churchill, The US, Japan and the trials and his surrender too and then suddenly...wait what? lol. I usually don't hear many people talking about Cold War from the perspective of South America so that's why I enjoyed so much your video.

On topic about Churchill, you could mention quote from 1946 published in 1966 where he advocated to nuke Moscow ...with that in mind, one can more easily understand Soviet lack of trust and reinforcing Churchill iron curtain. The pro- Churchill sources are trying to downplay significance of his lobbying, but lucky, we are living in internet age and it is easier than ever to understand the delusional, possibly sociopathic nature of Mr. Churchill.

yes, he was tried in absentia as it was not clear if he was still alive at the time. Although Borman had killed himself before the unconditional surrender, his remains were not recovered and positively identified until 1972. As such, he was tried at Nuremberg and given a death sentence in the event that he was found alive.

1946 was the beginning of the reign of the most popular Filipino mobster of Tondo, Manila, Asiong Salonga. He is the "Al Capone" of the Philippines because he did the same things as Al Capone except selling alcohol drinks. the Prohibition wasn't implemented in the Philippines during the American Occupation.

Hello. I just wanted to let you know that KZbin is increasing their efforts in their crusade against content creators like you.
