1867 -- 1919
"the formative period for the transcontinental nation-state and its maturing economy. A dependent colonial existence gave way to a semiautonomous nationhood rooted in dynamic growth at home and then manifested in impressive wartime achievements. Yet the rapid growth also brought urban slums, rising labour discontent and social disharmony, as well as an acceleration of linguistic, ethnic and religious divisions. And the military glory of WWI came at a heavy price in blood and national division. . . .
