Synopsis

Colonial War Facts explores the wars that defined the era of colonial expansion, revealing their profound impact on today's geopolitics, socio-economic systems, and cultural identities. Understanding these conflicts is crucial for grasping world history and the roots of international relations. The book examines the motivations, strategies, and long-term consequences of colonial wars for both colonizers and the colonized, challenging narratives of inevitable Western progress.

 
The investigation spans from the 15th to the 20th centuries, initially defining colonial warfare and distinguishing it from other conflicts. Major sections then delve into case studies from Africa, Asia, and the Americas, offering detailed accounts of key battles and the involvement of local populations. It's unique in that it offers a comparative analysis of colonial wars across different regions and empires, exposing both shared patterns and unique characteristics.

 
The book concludes by analyzing the lasting legacies of these wars, including territorial disputes and economic inequalities, and how lessons learned can apply to contemporary conflict resolution. Supported by primary source accounts and statistical data, Colonial War Facts provides a comprehensive analysis useful for students, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding the roots of current global issues.

William M Taggart IV

Have you been wondering about the big issues dominating the news? Is climate change a massive threat or not? What is really going on with immigration? More importantly, how did American politics become so divided and hostile? What if we approached American social, cultural and political problems from a purely rational perspective? What if we focus on functional systems instead of division? Careful analysis of readily available data can help us discover patterns and uncover the real issues. An engineering perspective allows us to focus on what needs to be fixed rather than ideological divisions.
Finally, one of America's top engineers has brought these topics and others together in a thought-provoking book. This book is rooted in history, facts, and logic, and it lays out solutions to America's problems. A book focused to get Americans talking to one another again, so we can rise to the occasion and solve today's problems together.

Italy - A Concise Guide to a...

Kelly Mass

This valuable deal contains multiple titles in one book. The topics are the following:
Florence: Florence was a major center of middle ages European trade and banking, and also one of the most affluent cities in the world at the time. A lot of academics believe it was the beginning of the Renaissance, and it has been called "the Athens of the Middle Ages." Renaissance painters and sculptures alike have their legacy in this city.
Naples: Naples, established by Greeks in the first millennium BC, is just one of the world's oldest constantly occupied cities. Naples has a long history, all the way dating back to Roman times, the outbreak of the Vesuvius, and much more. Let’s learn more about this fascinating city’s history.
St. Catherine of Siena: Catherine of Siena (who lived from March 25, in 1347 to April 29th, in the year 1380), a Dominican laywoman, was a mystic, activist, and writer who impacted Italian literature and the Catholic Church significantly. She was canonized in 1461 and is a Medical professional of the Church. She was born and raised in Siena and, regardless of her parents' desires, desired dedicate her life to God from an early age.
The Vatican: What comes to mind when you say the words “Vatican City?” The Pope? Big cathedrals or underground catacombs with the corpses of buried saints from the past? Crowds of people with candles? Or a choir of young men in a certain attire? The Vatican is a landlocked, independent city state and enclave in Rome, Italy.
Venetian Empire: When we think of Venice, we think of masks, canals, murals and frescoes, and little “gondoliers” with picturesque boats. Venice, indeed, has an impressive artistic history. But did you know that Venice was also, for a while, a considerably sized empire? The creation of the Venetian republic is said to have accompanied the starting of the church of St. James at the exact same time.
