16 Post War Effects in U.S. How did World War II impact the United States?

17 Post War Effects in U.S. WWII ended the Great Depression! The standard of living increased. Meaning more people had jobs and more money overall. Baby Boom Generation : birth rates increased, demand for goods such as housing, cars, etc. increased. Overall, the United States prospered after World War II…but there was always a fear of Communism!

18 Post War Effects in Asia What impact did World War II have on Asia?

19 Post War Effects in Asia Many Asian colonies were seeking independence after WWII, such as India and Vietnam. U.S. dropping the atomic bomb devastated Japan… the U.S. will help them rebuild their cities, factories, and governments. Result: Japan models industrialization after U.S. 7 Japanese leaders, including General Tojo, were sentenced to death after World War II. Emperor Hirohito was the only one left…

20 U.S.-Soviet Distrust WHY?? Soviets felt the U.S. did not recognize their Communist government. Stalin resented the Allies delaying their attack on Germany during World War II. Tensions began to arise over the democratic v. communist ideologies. In Response: The United States and allies = The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) The Soviet Union and allies = Warsaw Pact

21 The Iron Curtain The Soviet Union begins influencing other countries in Europe to become Communist. British Prime Minister Winston Churchill refers to the divide between democracy and communist countries in Europe as the ‘Iron Curtain’. U.S. announces a new foreign policy called “containment” to stop spread of communism.

22 U.S.-Soviet Distrust Do you think there should’ve been distrust between the U.S. and The Soviet Union?

23 NATO v. WARSAW PACT

24 The Truman Doctrine President Harry S. Truman’s plan of containment of Communism around the world. Through the Truman Doctrine, money was sent to countries to rebuild their infrastructure and governments. Money sent to countries fighting off Communism was through an act called the Marshall Plan.
