Modern history

Modern history, also referred to as the modern period or the modern era, is the historiographical approach to the timeframe after the post-classical era (known as the Middle Ages). Modern history can be further broken down into the early modern period, beginning with the Renaissance, and the late modern period after the French Revolution and the Industrial Revolution. Contemporary history is the span of historic events that are immediately relevant to the present time. The modern era began approximately in the 16th century.

The study of modern history

Some events, while not without precedent, show a new way of perceiving the world. The concept of modernity interprets the general meaning of these events and seeks explanations for major developments.

    Modern World

    by: This Is Ivy League

    The time of our lives we would like to forget
    The constant reminders, the constant regret
    Driving in circles all night long
    Could you turn up the volume? It's my favorite song
    Watch your step, careful what you say
    They're bound to be talking by the end of the day
    We see your true colors, pink, yellow, white
    The old folks they love it, losing their sight
    We've been here far too long to understand the Modern World
    Let's break away
    These homes are all broken, kids haven't a clue
    If you were as wasted, neither would you
    We tried to outrun you, fast as we can
    If you are a lion, I am a lamb
    A bitter remark, a slap in the face
    Here comes your mother, falling from grace
    Look in the mirror, what do you see?
    The one thing you hated
    Don't you know that we...
    We've been here far too long to understand the Modern World
    Let's break away
    We've been here far too long to understand the Modern World
