In the early 90s while George H. W. Bush was still the President of the United States, major political events markedly changed the world. These included the end of the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact, the reunification of Germany, Nelson Mandela's release from prison, the Persian Gulf War, and Bill Clinton becoming the 42nd President of the United States.
