Many other empires then followed. With the growth of empires, the concepts of territory and military force became the major themes. The Roman Empire suffered religious conflicts, while Chinese dynasties were attacked by invaders.

At the same time, British and Dutch forces respectively gained power in parts of various continents, including the Americas and the East Indies. Other colonizers also expanded, and later on, colonies began fighting for autonomy. As a result, many of Europe's regimes were destroyed, communism arose in Russia, and fascist dictatorships held other European countries like Italy and Germany.

I want a book that helps to fill in the background for me and tells me what else was happening in the world around the same time. This book does that. I think it was perhaps published to be a reference book but I read all of the timeline section and then skimmed through the concordance. It only skims but it is interesting to see what was happening here that might have had some effect on what was happening there.

I have to wonder—is there really any hope for us? Just like to add that the editing of this book is a bit sloppy in places, IMHO. Feb 23, Lucy rated it did not like it Shelves: I was attracted to this book bc it looks a lot like the textbook we read in World History class at Santa Catalina, and lately I have had SUCH a hankering to get my hands on that book and reread it. This book didn't fulfill that craving--they really go all out with the whole time line thing, which makes the exciting parts of history get all muddled with boring stuff happening in other places.

It just didn't do it for me. Taking it back to the library tomorrow!

The crater location is discovered in the late s, and is suspected to have had a role in the demise of dinosaurs. The location is possibly North and South America, resulting in extinction of about 30 species of large mammals. The great deluge may also be the source of the legends of the biblical Noah's Flood.

Dated to this same period are remains of millions of animals in hundreds of miles of frozen tundra found in Alaska and Russia, and massive piles of mastodon and saber-toothed tiger bones in Florida, and various animals found quick-frozen Venezuela. Some , shallow basins from Georgia to Delaware in the USA also date to this period, suggesting a vast meteor shower of a disintegrating giant comet. Human deaths are estimated at multiple millions.
