By narrowing down what you want to talk about. There was a lot that happened in the 19th century, and a lot's going on right now. What in particular would you like to compare? Politics, business, fashion, science, religion? Just pick one of them, and be specific. Otherwise, you'll write a book!

The major challenge that I can think of at the moment that is unique to the 21st century is to overcome the fictional movie stereotypes that are being established.\n\nAll the rest of the obstacles have been around a lot longer than the 21st century, so I don't need to rehash them. The idealization of super-competence, super-compassion, super-everything seems to be dominating television and extends to all fields, not just jurisprudence. There is an aura of unrealistic expectations being created by many of the dramas. \n\nPeople are going to be blamed for not living up to these unrealistic expectations through no fault of their own other than being human like everyone else.

It is 100 years ago.  Each century is 100 years.  We are now in the 21st century.  That happened when we hit 2000.  The millennium.  So the 20th century was between 1900 and 2000.  100 years.

We are currently in the 21st Century. Since a century represents 100 years. In calendars based on the Christian Era or Common Era, such as the Gregorian calendar, the 21st century is the current century, as of this writing. By some interpretations, it lasts from 2001-2100, and the 3rd millennium lasts from (2001 - 3000). This is based on the argument that there was no Year Zero, so the first century began in year 1http://www.astronomyboy.com/millennium/. However, common usage often regards the 21st century as lasting from 2000 to 2099. In 2000 the International Organization for Standardization implicitly backed this common usage by declaring that there was a Year Zero (see 20th century). Decades are almost always considered as starting with the "0" year and named accordingly ("2010s", etc.), so the first decade of a century could overlap back into the preceding one.

So many things happened in the 20th century!\n\nTechnology boomed: If you don't have a cell phone, TV, or computer, you're seen as primitive.\n\nCivil Rights were established:  Women are much more independent now and have more freedoms.  Same with minority groups.\n\nGo with history.  Whatever historical event was important, there are social changes to follow.
