I've always considered 1996, mid-90's. 1990-1993 (early 90's) 1994-1996 (mid-90's) 1997-1999 (late 90's).
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
