The Aksumites
The African continent is renowned for its vastness, diverse cultures, peoples, languages, and rich history. As one of the oldest inhabited regions, Africa has witnessed numerous migratory waves and the rise and fall of powerful kingdoms and empires. However, it is important to note that the concepts of "empire" and "kingdom" may not fully account for the political-military phenomena that existed in Africa. Therefore, the use of these terms must be understood as conventions, and some specialist historians in Africa have already adopted alternative concepts such as "centralized unit" and "political-military unit". In this video, we explore the history of the Axumite Empire, an African kingdom that left a significant mark on history.

Who is greater, Qin Shihuang or Li Shimin in China?
Li Shimin is the greatest emperor in China and the most capable emperor in the history of the world. In the ancient Tang Dynasty, the evaluations of Taizong and Qin Shihuang were even more different. To put it bluntly (truth), Tang Taizong can stand the test of any angle, and his political thought and vision are still worth learning today, so the status of the past dynasties is the highest, and the status of Qin Shihuang is extremely high. Much depends on the political needs of those in power.

Popular Misconception About Ancient Rome
Historiography is the study of how history is researched and written. And one of its key lessons is that looks can be deceiving. During the Renaissance, people became fascinated by the art produced by the ancient Greeks and Romans, especially statues. These statues had originally been painted in a variety of shades and colors by their original creators. But by the Renaissance, all of these paints and dyes had chipped off due to wear and elemental exposure. Modern researchers have since used ultraviolet and infrared technology to analyze the ancient statues, examining layers of paints and coatings that remain invisible to the naked eye. I wonder if any of these artists draw that cool S we were all obsessed with in middle school. But the Renaissance artists, who took their technically incorrect inspiration from the Greeks and Romans, made their sculptures unpainted, giving us the pure white marble look we still associate with ancient sculptures today. Copying someone's homework incorrectly-- who wasn't guilty of that crime? As many of these statues depict the ancient Romans wearing togas, this led to the widespread presumption that togas were everyday casual wear throughout the Roman Empire. But in fact, togas were not all that common.

How America Became A Superpower?
The modern United States is the most powerful country in human history. With over 800 military bases and 37% of global military spending, the United States has become the leader of a vast interconnected global system that has helped usher in an era of unprecedented prosperity and low levels of conflict. To understand America’s position in the world, and why it’s so pivotal for world politics as we know it, you have to go back to the country’s founding — back to when America wasn’t a global power in any sense of the word. During the first 70 years of its existence, the United States expanded in both territory and influence in North America eventually reaching the Pacific Ocean in a wave of expansionism that resulted in the wholesale slaughter of the indigenous people who populated the continent. But early Americans were deeply divided as to whether the country should expand beyond the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. This became a major debate after the civil war, when some leaders, like post-war Secretary of State Seward, argued that America should push to become a global power.
