Modern Age=European Age

I believe we have moved on from the Modern age because of the fact that we have moved into the technology age. It is safe to say that the modern age was dedicated to the Europeans because of the great influences that they had on the world. The cultural influence that the Europeans forcefully pushed upon other countries. I think that is why we have moved away from the modern age and it would be safe to say that we have moved into the technology stage. Where everything is surrounded by technology and now computers run faster due to the fast WiFi we have access to know.

I think expanded ideas were mostly forced upon other countries and cultures. An example of this is how Christianity was pushed upon the Native Americans, while also being stripped down from their language. The land ownership changed too by a document that agreed that the colonists now took ownership of the land that the Native Americans always lived on. Along with the migration of the Europeans to America they brought along different food, agricultural ways, and diseases to America.

Not only does this support the modern age also being the European age but also because a lot of the things that we have today have originated or been influenced by Europe.
