After the massive number of casualties inflicted and the physical ravaging of the nations, the biggest consequence of WW2 was the Soviet Union's occupation of eastern Europe, which allowed the forceful spread of Communism and set the stage for the Cold War, which consumed the next half-century. 21 million were left homeless in Europe. Empires such as Great Britain and France fell. The US emerged dominant as it had funded WW2 and led reconstruction. There was no all-inclusive peace settlement, but there were lots of separate treaties. Russia could not decide about the future of Germany and Austria. Nuclear weapons played a major development of the Cold War. The massive scientific research and engineering projects conducted in the United States, Germany, and Japan had a lasting effect on the way technological advancements are developed. The Manhattan Project was the most dramatic example, but throughout the war, basic scientific research played an increasing role in technological development. Also the introduction of the GI Bill accelerated the spread of college education in the American population, and from there through the rest of the world.

In short, here are the seven major consequences of World War II:

1: The End of the European Age.

2: The rise of the US to superpower status.

3: The expansion of the Soviet Union and its rise to superpower status.

4: The emergence of the Cold War.

5. The beginning of the nuclear age.

6: The rise of nationalism and independence movements in Asia and Africa.

7: A renewed effort to secure lasting peace through international organizations (such as the United Nations).
