Recommended history topics?

Question

Im allowed to choose any topic that i want for my I.A for IB history. I am thinking i would like to do something concerning the 20th century in America. Does anyone know of any interesting events that would be fun to research? Thanks!!

How about when they built the Mackinac Bridge? At the time it was the longest suspended bridge in the world (now it's placed 3rd). But I watched a special on it on the History Channel and was really quite  interesting.
