18351924

The years 1835-1924 refer to a period in modern history, spanning nearly nine decades. Beginning in 1835, this time frame encompasses the pre-Civil War era in the United States, the Industrial Revolution in Europe, and the early years of colonization in Australia.

During this period, the Industrial Revolution reached its peak in the mid-19th century. Technological advancements such as the steam engine and the development of railroads revolutionized transportation and manufacturing. The Industrial Revolution led to significant economic growth and urbanization in Europe and North America.

In the United States, the Antebellum era came to an end in 1861 with the outbreak of the American Civil War. The war between the Union and the Confederacy lasted four years and resulted in the abolition of slavery in the United States. The Reconstruction era that followed led to the passage of the 13th Amendment to the Constitution in 1865.

In other parts of the world, the late 19th and early 20th centuries saw significant imperial gains by European powers. The Berlin Conference of 1884 led to the partitioning of Africa among European nations. Meanwhile, Japan underwent a period of rapid modernization and industrialization, culminating in the Meiji Restoration of 1868.

The years 1930-1924 also witnessed significant cultural and artistic developments. In literature, the emergence of modernist movements in the late 19th and early 20th centuries led to new forms of expression and experimentation. In music, composers such as Mahler, Strauss, and Debussy made significant contributions to classical music.
