As the world entered the second half of the 20th century many things were in a constant state of flux. World War II was over but tensions between world powers remained and more wars would break out as a result. In many ways, society was trying to rebuild from a very turbulent first half of the 20th century.
Many things that happened in the fifties would go on to influence how we live our lives even today. You don't necessarily have to have lived during those years to have lots of knowledge about the decade. In fact, most history experts alive on the planet today likely have none or very little first-hand experience with the 1950s. In this quiz, we cover questions on world events, pop culture, and technology to test your knowledge of this pivotal decade in human history.
