Study World History v1.0 APK (Unlimited Money)

At the beginning of your studies, you will probably have many general questions, such as:

o How did Europe come to dominate so much of modern history?
o Was North America destined to become a super power?
o Does the past have any bearing on the world today?
o Does history have any bearing on an individual person's life?

Many people enjoy easing into history and historical questions by reading historical fiction. Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code is a popular choice and can lead people to further study Renaissance art, culture, and history.

History of War
Many people begin studying history by looking at the history of warfare. Military History and Maritime History can be fascinating subjects. You can study the wars themselves or the political figures who orchestrated the events.

Finest Years: Churchill as Warlord 1940-45 by Sir Max Hastings is a detailed portrait of Winston Churchill. It is a fascinating introduction to England during the modern wars. Learning about the war periods can be disturbing. You might have many questions about the very nature of war.

Some questions might be:

o Does war define human history?
o Should you define historical time periods by the wars that were fought?
o If history is written by the victors, can we ever have a truly accurate account of a war?
o Can lessons from history help us prevent future militarized conflicts?

Whispers from the Ancient World

Once you explore modern military history, you might want to learn more about Ancient History and Civilization. Understanding the roots of civilization is key to a broad historical education. For thousands of years, a liberal arts education was based around ancient history and ancient languages such as Latin and Greek. In the modern era, our knowledge of the ancient world has been enhanced by Archaeology. Books that explore the ruins of ancient buildings and villages offer a fascinating glimpse inside the daily life of the ancients.

Another way to see ancient civilization through the eyes of those who lived at that time is by reading accounts recorded by ancient historians. Both The Histories (Oxford World's Classics) by Herodotus and The Peloponnesian War (Classics) by Thucydides are respected accounts of the ancient world. These accounts, however, are not entirely accurate. Historians in the ancient world were not as concerned with making sure every detail of their histories was factually accurate. They wanted to tell stories; they wanted to flatter the people in power. This former inclination to change history troubles some people. They see remnants of this in modern life and it raises many questions:

o Have people changed since ancient times?
o Were ancient governmental systems better or worse than today's governments?
o Is it possibly to find an unbiased ancient historian? What does this say about our own modern historians?
o Has the discipline of history improved since the days of Herodotus and Thucydides?
o Do any groups or individuals still try to change history to suit their purposes?
