In what decade of the 20th century did the world change the most?

I'm going to say the 1940s. Why?





-World War 2

-Television comes out, the transistor and computer are invented

-Baby boom generation begins to be born

-America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and to a lesser extent western Europe enter a period of peace and prosperity that would last through the 1990s

-The nuclear bomb is invented and the Cold War begins

-The stage is set for the Civil Rights movement
In what decade of the 20th century did the world change the most?
I'm going the say the decade that computers and transistors came out, because since then technology has totally changed the way we all live, and we use it for so many things in our lives. I bet someone from the 1920's would barely recognize the world.
