The historian Eric Hobsbawm once wrote that the 19th century didn't end until the cataclysm of 1914, and that the 20th finished early with the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1989. I think 1990-2001 was an innocent decade and the 21st century started on 9/11.

Similarly "the long 19th century" is 1789 -- 1914 (Ilya Ehrenberg and Hobsbawm).
