Often referred to as the the Revolutionary Twenties, the Decade of Democracy, or just the Twenties, the 2020s were characterized mainly by democratic, populist, and progressive cultural and societal movements worldwide, as well as the beginning of the end for authoritarianism and reactionary government.
