20142015

20142015 is a concatenated label used to refer to the two-year span that includes the calendar years 2014 and 2015. In common usage it appears as 2014–2015 or 2014–15 to indicate periods that cross year boundaries, such as sports seasons, fiscal years, or academic years, when activity and reporting are organized across two calendar years.

During this period, significant global events shaped politics, health, and culture. In 2014, the Sochi Winter Olympics took place in February, and the FIFA World Cup was held in Brazil in the summer. The year also saw territorial tensions with the crisis in Crimea and ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, along with the rapid spread of the Ebola virus in West Africa. Many countries conducted elections or enacted policy debates in 2014 as part of routine political cycles.

In 2015, major incidents included terrorist attacks in Paris and the broader European migrant crisis, a powerful earthquake in Nepal, and the negotiations that led to the Paris Agreement at the COP21 climate conference. The year also featured notable technological and policy developments, such as the release of Windows 10 and heightened emphasis on climate action. The label 2014–2015 is often used in journalism, academia, sports, and governance to track events and trends that unfold across two consecutive years.
