2010 - present (1 gen 2010 anni – 23 ore 6 min, 24 gen 2018 anni)
Descrizione:
The current decade is dominated by political and economic crises. In September 2015 began the European refugee crisis, mainly driven by the Syrian Civil War. Throughout the decade, North Korea expanded its nuclear capabilities, performing alleged nuclear tests in 2013 and 2016, which governments responded by placing international sanctions on the country. In response North Korea has threatened the United States, South Korea and Japan with preemptive nuclear strikes Economic issues, including inflation and an increase in commodity prices, sparked unrest in many lower-income countries. In some countries, particularly those in the Arab world, political unrest evolved into socioeconomic crises. This set off numerous revolutions, including those in Kyrgyzstan and Tunisia in 2010, and Libya, Syria, Yemen, and Egypt in 2011 and 2012. This trend became known as the Arab Spring, and was followed by the Arab Winter.
