Secular activities tend to separate state governing and religion, creating a country that is governed by opinions and human relations, not one led by religious beliefs.
The end of the World War II had a huge effect on Japan and the Pacific Rim states. The effect was mostly positive. This can be seen in the rapid industrialization of these nations, which resulted in rapid economic growth. Instead of war, these nations became focused on developing, economically and socially. Lot of things from the Western culture were introduced and adopted in order to become more competitive, to modernize, and have the same pace of cultural development as the other strong nations.
Lot of reforms were introduced, were the societies got democracy, the human rights improved significantly, the women became equal to the men and had the same opportunities in life.
All of this things led to a very quick change in the societies of this nations. The mentality changed, the way the governments and the people in general functioned changed. The economy changed and became heavily industrialized, strong, and open towards the world.

Hi,
Technology applied to automotive was simple. Cars in both the 1920s and 1950s had four wheels and carried people from places to places. However, the shape of the cars in the 1950s was build up and more stylish as compared to cars in the 1920s.
Telephone technology in the 1920s and 1950s both could call out and get called in. The difference was in size where the 1950s model was short with a chubby body where as those in the 1920s were long and with a skinny body.
Technology for wash machines in the 1920s and 1950s both achieved the goal of washing and cleaning cloths and only women were involved in both times. However, the difference in both body structure was visible to the machines of 1950s that resembled a big box with a window to view cloths.
