Deciding the direction of decade


 
Almost every decade start with things that change the direction of the decade itself. In 1991 the fall of USSR marked the end of cold war era and beginning of unipolar world under hegemony of United States. Last decade began with Y2K bug but on 11 September 2001 WTC was attacked by terrorists and rest of the decade was largely related and indirectly result of the activities around the same fact.
Now in this decade it all started with protests in Arab world from Tunisia followed by Egypt. In both the cases the younger generations with greater aspirations supplied with window of Internet were able to oust autocratic and unchallenged regime with uncontrolled power. These two revolutions in modern time will change the structure and view of the world and the effects of these revolutions will be felt throughout the world for whole decade..!
