A time where no one was sure of what would happen in the future. I strongly maintain that America is not the society everyone depicts. Let me begin the discussion by talking about World War II and America’s involvement and why it matters now, in 2016.…

Weaponry has played a large part in shaping history into what it is today: it's toppled nations, built empires, and destroyed them all the same. With this humanity has continued to improve it, from spears and bows to bombs capable of leveling cities in seconds.
