The eighties

People remember this period, according to social and economic changes in the world. The European Community has been expanded to three more members: Greece, Spain and Portugal. This decade was marked by the Cold War and The Fall of the Berlin Wall. The technology has changed from analog and electronic into digital. Games are getting more and more users. Television is becoming more popular and the number of televisions has doubled. The first Internet network was created in 1983. The most famous films include Rambo, Commando, American Ninja and Police Academy. Michael Jackson marked the music scene of that period. The eighties represented a golden age for Mercedes Benz. The clothing and the current vogue of this period are known for mixing the diversity and breaking boundaries. Sportswear spread its influence to all social and age groups. Leather clothing, short skirts, tricot, bright colors, shiny tights and heels occupy an important place in the fashion of the eighties. The most frequently used materials were lycra and viscose. Also, jackets and shirts with pronounced shoulders occupied an important place in fashion. The world of the eighties was simple. In the eighties only the wealthiest people could afford to have a cell phone and a dishwasher but now having a good cell phone, expensive car, designer watch, pool and going to a private school ranks among the everyday needs. Also today it is normal to travel by first class and have a group of people who help you keep the household. In the eighties, people would be happy with the simplest things, enjoying in small events and doing what they love.
