Hollywood made the city world-famous, and World War II brought new industry, especially high-tech aircraft construction. Politically the city was moderately conservative, with a weak labor union sector. Los Angeles had a strong economic base in farming, oil, tourism, real estate and movies. It grew rapidly with many suburban areas inside and outside the city limits.
Since the 1960s, growth has slowed—and traffic delays have become famous. Los Angeles was a pioneer in freeway development as the public transit system deteriorated. New arrivals, especially from Mexico and Asia, have transformed the demographic base since the 1960s. Old industries have declined, including farming, oil, military and aircraft, but tourism, entertainment and high tech remain strong.
The Reformation had the impact of splitting the church in Western Europe into many different groups or "denominations," as we now call them. Prior to the Reformation, throughout most of Europe everyone was part of the Roman Catholic Church. (In the East, there had been the previous split-off of the Eastern Orthodox Church, but let's stick to the Reformation era and western Europe in this answer.) Due to the efforts of reformers like Luther and Calvin and others, there now were multiple religious groups in Europe.
This also led to warfare in the 16th and 17th centuries -- the "Wars of Religion," as they've been called. It took some time for people to grow used to the idea that there could be more than one religion in Europe, and the newly Protestant territories had to fight to maintain sovereignty over affairs in their own territories.

The term island hopping was used during WWII when the US and its allied forces were going from island to island trying to regain and push out the Japanese forces in the islands from Guam, Tarawa, Guadalcanal, Palua, and others, including Okinawa. Most of the tiny atolls were bombed, however, the only way to take over them was to land forces and literally flush out the Japanese soldiers by fire. Chuuk in Micronesia was believed to be very difficult to land troops and it would take a great amount of forces to land, so the US and its allies blockaded the entire lagoon, starving the Japanese. That is one of the island hopping terms I have heard. Marine are notorious for these beach landings, many of their hero's were made in the island hopping campaign. <span />
