  1. The Lost Generation, primarily known as the Generation of 1914 in Europe,were those who fought in the First World War.

    The Interbellum Generation is composed of those born at the close of the 19th century and were young adults during the 1920s.
    The Greatest Generation is the generation that includes the veterans who fought in World War II.

    The Silent Generation is the generation that includes those who were too young to join the service during World War II.

    The Baby Boom Generation is the generation that was born during World War II to 1960
    Generation Jones describes the generation of people born between 1954 and 1965.

    Generation X is the generation generally defined as those born after the baby boom ended, with earliest birth dates seen used by researchers ranging from 1961 to the latest 1981

    Generation Y is also known as Generation Next or the Millennials.Some sources have Generation Y spanning from the earliest, possibly late 1970s, to the early 1990s. Today, many follow William Strauss and Neil Howe's demographics in defining the Millennials. Respected researchers William Strauss and Neil Howe have been influential in defining American generations in their book Generations: The History of America's Future, 1584 to 2069 (1991) and Millennials Rising: The Next Great Generation (2000). They use the start year as 1982 and believe that the coming of age of year 2000 high school graduates sharply contrasts with those born before them and after them due to the attention they received from the media and what influenced them politically.

    The following Generation, referred to as Generation Z, iGen, the internet generation and various other names, was born between the mid-1990s and end of the 2000s.
