Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Quick quiz: What caused the fall of Rome? Why did the Ottoman Empire collapse? Spoiler: it's never just one thing. World history is the story of how we got here, and most of us only remember the parts that were on the test. We know Rome fell and that there were two World Wars, but the connections between events? Mostly a blur. This book covers the empires, revolutions, and turning points that shaped the modern world-from ancient civilizations to the Cold War. You'll learn how trade routes built empires, why revolutions keep following the same playbook, and how a single assassination started a war that killed millions. History isn't just what happened. It's why the same things keep happening. **WORLD HISTORY: 10,000 Years in 100 Pages** covers: - **The Ancient World (10,000 BCE - 500 CE)**- **Civilizations of the Americas**- **Africa-The Overlooked Continent**- **Oceania and the Pacific**- **The Medieval World (500 - 1500 CE)**- **The Early Modern World (1500 - 1800)**- **The Age of Revolutions (1750 - 1914)**- **The World Wars (1914 - 1945)**- **The Cold War Era (1945 - 1991)**- **The Modern World (1991 - Present)**- **Southeast Asia -- The Crossroads of Civilizations**- **Japan and Korea -- The East Asian Powerhouses**- **Women in World History -The Hidden Half**- **The Empires of Commerce**- **Science and Technology -The Engines of Change**- **Religions That Shaped The World**- **Epidemics and Pandemics in History**- **Migration**- **Environmental History -- The Forgotten Factor**- **Language and Writing in World History** No memorizing dates.
