I have an idea for a roaring 20s EP. The 1920s were my favorite time period that I learned about. Here are some things that happened around the world in the 1920s that I would like to see in this EP.
Flappers: Western women who wore short skirts, had bobbed hair, listened to jazz music, and flaunted their disdain.
Large scale adaption of automobiles, telephones, motion pictures, and electricity
Wars
Turkish War of Independence
Irish Civil War
Castellammarese War
The rise of communism following WWI
Polish-Soviet War
The Chinese Civil War
Extravagant parties
Woman's sufferance movement
Prohibition of alcohol (or juice in the sims)
The Immigration Act of 1924- we would see less ethnic groups in the sims during this time period.
The United Kingdom general strike
Black Tuesday
The New Economic Policy
The first All-Talking movie Lights of New York could be shown in movie theaters in the game once we have movie theaters in the game

First color television. Although most TVs in the game during this time period could be in black and white.
First process for frozen food

As an example, what about Speakeasy as a new lot type? Requirements could include 1 hidden door, 1 bar, 2 musical instruments and a certain number of tables, chairs, etc. This could be almost like an active profession where you manage the bouncers, the bartenders and the talent.
Nectar making and singing could be new skills and Singer could be a new career type. Maybe you can even book gigs at the speakeasy.
The pack could also add the ability to run a radio station. Book talent including live bands and singers, write and run advertising, run dramas, detective serials, make news announcements.
Run and manage a decadent movie theater, including black and white films and talkies. Movie star could be added as a new career.
To sum up, new professions are Singer, Band Member, Radio Star, Movie Star and you can manage either a Speakeasy, Radio Station or Theater.
