Generations of the State
In regards to defining what periods of time the history of the United States (at least) should be divided into, here are some ideas:

The Gilded Age (c. 1880-1914)

World War I (1914-1919)

Postwar (1920-1939) or The Jazz Age (1920-1929) and The Great Depression (1929-1939)

World War II (1939-1945)

Cold War (1945-1989) should be broken into smaller periods, but I'm not quite sure what the best division would be...

After the Fall of Soviet communism (1990-2000)

Post 9/11 (2001-Present)

Please, submit any ideas or suggestions about how best to do this.
