Europe's worldwide influence declined due to the tremendous loss of life and damage taken to its infrastructure, military power, and resources from the World Wars, as well as the major European powers losing control of their colonies worldwide. [[UsefulNotes/NorthAmerica North American]] global influence surged, and North America soon replaced Europe in much of their role worldwide, with the UsefulNotes/UnitedStates coming into prominence as one of the three Superpowers left after the World Wars, the others being the United Kingdom and [[UsefulNotes/SovietRussiaUkraineAndSoOn Soviet Union]]. Europe would find peace for some time after World War II, though would spend a lot of that peace [[UsefulNotes/ColdWar split into two halves by the United States and the Soviet Union]], with the US-allied countries forming UsefulNotes/{{NATO}} and the Soviet Union-allied countries forming the UsefulNotes/WarsawPact. The United Kingdom soon lost its Superpower status after the Suez Crisis of 1956. The Soviet Union would later collapse in TheNineties, dissolving the Warsaw Pact, reuniting the two halves of the continent, and leaving the United States as the only remaining Superpower in the present. The history of Europe is equal parts glorious and equal parts tragic. Fittingly enough, the name "Europe" is derived from the name of the [[Myth/ClassicalMythology mythical]] [[DoubleStandardRapeDivineOnMortal rape victim]] Europa.
