Dieselpunk

Dieselpunk is a type of fiction that combines elements from the time periods of World War I and World War II. It often includes things like powered machines such as tanks, airplanes, and submarines, as well as steampunk-style clothing and fashion. Dieselpunk also often includes real-world events (like the formation of the United Nations) as part of its narrative. It is sort of like a combination of the 1920s and 1940s, with a futuristic edge to it that comes from technology like robotics, laser guns, and hovercrafts. It is often seen in movies and shows like The Rocketeer and Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow.
