Thanks to the post World War II boom, the American economy during the 1950's shifted towards developing consumer goods/resources that would become part of the popular culture.
A perfect example of this is the development of suburbs. After World War II, the US had a huge increase in marriage rates and babies born, as many soldiers who came back from World War II were looking to settle down and start a family. This resulted in the development of communities like the Levittowns (seen originally in Long Island, NY). These communities provided affordable houses with modern conveniences for thousands of American families.
Along with this, the development of shopping malls helps feed into consumer culture during this time. Families started to spend money on commodities such as washers, dryers, and even television sets. By the end of the 1950's, over 65 million TV's had been sold, establishing the standard of television as a focal point of the American household.

The people that have largely shaped African history since the 16th century are the C. European people.
<h3>How has Europe shaped African history?</h3>
The Europeans have perhaps shaped the history of Africa more than any other people. This is outstanding considering that the Europeans only started interacting with most of Africa from the 16th century. The first way they shaped the history of Africa was through slavery.
European people carried millions of Africans from their homeland, and dispersed them across the world, especially in the Americas. This reduced the population of the continent.
Europeans then came and colonized most of Africa. Indeed at some point, more than 90% of Africa was under the control of the Europeans. They used this pwoer to exploit the continent for its resources. Even after Africa gained independence, these European countries still continued to influence the government of African nations, and exploit her resources further.
