Moving into the 18th century, discord was growing in the American colonies, which were ruled by Britain. In January 1776, Thomas Paine published 500,000 copies of Common Sense an argument for why America should be independent. It heavily influenced the authors of the Declaration of Independence. It was during the Revolutionary war that General George Washington unveiled the Grand Union Flag (1776), which was the first national flag of America. A year later, in January 1777, Washington would go on to defeat the British at Princeton. Looking at events of the 20th century, in January 1920, after the devastation of WWI, the League of Nations officially came into existence with the goal of resolving international disputes, reducing armaments, and preventing future wars. WWII would nevertheless take place just two decades later, and in 1942, twenty six countries signed the Declaration of the United Nations, reaffirming their opposition to the Axis powers and that they’d stand together in order to achieve peace.

The IEEE Computer Group Becomes the IEEE Computer SocietyThe IEEE Computer Group formally changes its name to the IEEE Computer Society (CS). The origin of both of these entities was the foundation of the subcommittee on Large-Scale Computing Devices by the American Institute of Electrical Engineers in 1946. Today, the IEEE CS is one of the largest of several dozen technical societies of IEEE, which has total membership of more than 430,000 in over 160 countries as of 2014.January 1, 1945Eckert and Mauchly Sign a Contract to Build the EDVAC
Eckert and Mauchly sign a contract to build the EDVAC (Electronic Discrete Variable Computer), the first general-purpose electronic digital-stored program computer to be designed. Even before the ENIAC had been unveiled in 1946, Eckert and Mauchly were already thinking about their next machine. In June 1945, John von Neumann, who took an active part in the design discussions, made a key contribution to the understanding and development of computer architecture in his unpublished report titled First Draft of a Report on the EDVAC.
