BOUND BY BLOOD.
---INTERESTING FACT--- Everyone on Earth is at most fiftieth cousin with everyone else. And in fact people who are in the same country or share ethnicity with you are likely to be related to you within 10 past generations meaning they are around your tenth cousin.

The Cuban Revolution
Cuba, a picturesque Caribbean island, isn't typically the first place that comes to mind when one thinks of communism or socialism. It's more commonly associated with the Soviet Union and, to some extent, modern-day China, both of which embraced these ideologies. However, Cuba's unique path toward socialism was paved by the Cuban Revolution, a historic event that dramatically altered the course of the nation's history.

The Worst Year in Human History
In the year 536, rapid transformations occurred overnight. People began to question whether or not it was the end of the world. As soon as they realised it, they observed that their silhouettes did not cast any shadows even at midday, as the sun's colour shifted from yellow to blue. Frost and Snow started to appear in the middle of summer. The ocean seemed to become angrier, too, with currents moving at Unseen speeds. At one point, the sun only shone about four hours a day, and it had lost most of its power. The rain stopped falling altogether, and the temperatures dropped lower than ever before. Since there was no sun and no rain, crops were severely damaged. There wasn't enough food for people or animals, so it's simple to see why people lost all hope at the time, as evidenced by historical documents. territories that now belong to Italy or Ireland to Japan and Central America were all affected by a decade-long thick fog that shifted the planet's temperature. The human population decreased by about 100 million. At the same time, those who survived seem to have lost their sense of purpose, so soon enough, cities collapsed. It's for good reason that many historians consider the year 536 the worst time to be alive. It took scientists years to figure out. If that weren't bad enough, the world would soon be overrun by disease, which disrupted the global economy. It took humanity until 640 to return to normalcy. How can a volcanic eruption on a small island cause so much damage, even with this piece of the puzzle in place? It turns out that when a volcano erupts, large amounts of sulphur bismuth and other damaging substances are mixed in the atmosphere. The larger the eruption, the more substances are sprayed into the protective gas layer. These elements create an aerosol Veil, which acts like a mirror and reflects sunlight into space. Almost every freezing summer in the past 2,500 years occurred after a volcanic eruption in the 6th Century. These eruptions occurred quickly one after the other, which could also explain why the entire period lasted 18 months. This wasn't the only year that perplexed climate scientists; 1816 was also known as "The Year Without a Summer." Mount Tambora in Indonesia, which erupted in 1815, will likely be credited for this disaster. This event was the largest in the last 10,000 years; consequently, the average global temperature fluctuated by nearly 2 degrees Fahrenheit. Globally, many events occur, although, at the time, they appeared to be isolated. In New England, for example, cooler temperatures caused crops to fail, forcing many farmers to relocate to the West, forever altering the country's demographics. In Continental Europe, the potato harvest was almost entirely lost, resulting in some of the worst famines people had ever experienced. The worst day in our planet's history occurred almost exactly 66 million years ago when an asteroid about the size of Manhattan broke through the Earth's atmosphere and landed on the Yucatan Peninsula. People believed it occurred in June or July. This space traveller created a 20-mile-wide hole in our planet's surface and scattered soil and rock across the globe. Some became trapped in outer space and eventually obstructed the sun's rays, preventing them from cooling the planet. By the time our planet regained some semblance of normalcy, the Gulf of Mexico had been ravaged by multiple powerful earthquakes and destructive tsunamis. The theory that an asteroid wiped out 75 per cent of Earth's species, including the most prominent dinosaurs, was first proposed in 1980. However, it is still being debated in the scientific community. Asteroid impacts caused other large-scale extinctions on our planet. However, this one was so unique that it caused the extinction of even the most resilient dinosaurs. The impact could have altered the oceans' chemical composition. The seawater may have become corrosive, and the tiny plankton at the base of the marine food chain may have vanished temporarily. This may have been a succession of species. It's easy to see why this could have been the worst day in our planet's history, but Earth is millions of years old, and not every day has been this terrible. Ancient Egypt was far ahead of its time in terms of technology, science, medicine, and architecture. Many people had access to education and medical care and could participate in sports and other recreational activities. The ancient Egyptians had access to several commonplace and what we would consider modern items, such as pens, dental mints, toothpaste, board games, and even cosmetics. People in Athens in the fourth and fifth centuries BCE enjoyed equal liberties regardless of their social or educational standing, and wealth was also fairly evenly distributed. The ideas of Aristotle, Plato, and Hippocrates became the foundation of what is now known as Western Civilization if you lived in those times and enjoyed traversing the city. During this period, theatre, literature, and architecture also flourished. Italy during the Renaissance was also quite attractive. Following a gruesome period of famine and disease, the country underwent an economic, cultural, and artistic transformation. Workers could now demand better working conditions and higher wages, and the thriving economy allowed art and culture to flourish. Wealthy members of Italian society had enough money to become patrons of artists. the writers, Architects and scientists, the year 1804 is up next. It was the year Englishman Richard Trevithick invented the first practical steam locomotive. It was the first time many passengers were transported over a long distance. How about the year 1876? That's when the telephone was invented. Can you imagine life without your cell phone? Alexander Graham Bell patented the telephone.

A unique project by a famous American author
Ambrose Barris was one of America's most successful short-story writers in the early twentieth century. In December 1913, he disappeared, so he could not be seen or heard of. He had said some of these things before he disappeared, so it is possible that he had such a plan for the last days of his life. He feared that once he died, he and his writings would be forgotten, but he did not want that to happen.
