new era

Time of change

A new era is a distinct period marked by significant change from what came before.

The phrase signals a turning point—political, technological, cultural, or personal: The internet ushered in a new era of communication, Her promotion marked a new era in her career.

Often used with hopeful or dramatic emphasis, sometimes overblown: A new era of peace and prosperity.
