  Famine of Fear - The Holodomor...

  The Holodomor, one of the most devastating famines in modern history, cannot be understood without first examining the upheaval that gave rise to the Soviet Union. The collapse of the Russian Empire in 1917 marked the beginning of radical change across Eastern Europe, and Ukraine found itself at the center of a volatile political landscape. The chaos of World War I, followed by the Bolshevik Revolution, dismantled centuries-old institutions, replacing them with a new, ideologically driven regime determined to reshape society. 
  Ukraine’s struggle for autonomy intensified during this transitional period. After the fall of the Romanovs, various Ukrainian factions attempted to establish an independent nation, but their efforts were short-lived. The Bolsheviks, intent on consolidating power, saw Ukraine not as a sovereign entity but as a key agricultural region vital to the survival and success of the Soviet state. By the early 1920s, Ukraine was forcibly incorporated into the USSR, and its political identity was subordinated to Moscow's vision of a unified socialist republic. 
  The Bolsheviks, led initially by Vladimir Lenin, promised land to peasants and equality for all workers, which won them temporary support. However, these promises quickly dissolved into policies that centralized power and suppressed regional identities. The Soviet leadership viewed Ukrainian nationalism as a threat to their authority, prompting efforts to erase cultural distinctions and eliminate opposition. Lenin’s New Economic Policy offered some relief and flexibility to rural communities, but this period of relative leniency ended with his death and Joseph Stalin’s rise to power.

  The vault lies deep beneath the palace. 
  Alric, the Elran dancer, opens the immense stone door, guiding Heath and Caio into the vast chamber. 
  “The ancient inhabitants of this desert imbued items with a great number of dark powers. Some of these enchantments were distinctly...sexual.” 
  Caio’s pale cheeks flush deep pink as he realizes what kind of objects are locked away here. 
  The young dancer runs his fingertips over an ominous, silver-trimmed black box, its obsidian surface glittering temptingly in the torchlight. 
  “They say it houses a spirit. A creature that can provide endless pleasure.” Alric lowers his voice. “But only a powerful mage can open it...someone like you.” 
  ***CONTAINS EXPLICIT GAY SEXUAL CONTENT***

  Holy Temples of Jerusalem The:...

  There was not any one entity more central to the Yahwistic Judean religion during the monarchy than the temple of Solomon. It symbolized the presence of YHWH in the nation, as well as his enduring protection of the nation and the Davidic royal throne. Judean worshippers directed their prayers toward the Solomonic temple, and eventually, the Judean prophets and theologians declared that this was the only legitimate location where priests could perform sacrifices and other religious rites for YHWH. Its significance can be seen most clearly in the dramatic cognitive dissonance experienced by the Judeans in Babylonian captivity after the destruction of the temple, which had been so central to their religious conception that they had great difficulty reconciling its destruction with their continued belief in YHWH at all.  
  	Jerusalem was uninhabited for much of the 6th century B.C., and this period is known as the exile to Babylon, and Bible scholars believe that it was during those years that the Jewish people came into contact with several stories and legends that would later be incorporated into their sacred writings. A generation later, Achaemenid Persian Emperor Cyrus the Great allowed the Jews who so wished to return to Jerusalem to rebuild the temple and reestablish their nation.  
  	The reborn country, settled in the province called Yehud Medinata, survived semi-independently, although to a lesser extent than before, until it was again absorbed by the Greek kingdoms that arose after the conquests of Alexander the Great. After that, the Jews remained under the rule of the Hellenistic Seleucids, who ruled their Near Eastern kingdom from Mesopotamia, and occasionally under the rule of the Ptolemies, who reigned from Alexandria, Egypt. Eventually, though, a number of factors led to a Jewish revolt against Seleucid rule that started in 167 B.C. and came to be known as the Maccabean Revolt.

  "Ethiopia and the Origin of Civilization" by John G. Jackson is a seminal work that challenges traditional Eurocentric perspectives on the origins of civilization. Originally published in 1939, Jackson's book seeks to highlight the significant contributions of African civilizations, particularly Ethiopia, to the development of human culture and civilization.Through meticulous research and historical analysis, Jackson addresses the historical misrepresentations and biases that have marginalized the achievements of African societies. The title underscores the importance of Ethiopia, delving into its ancient history, kingdoms, and cultural accomplishments. Jackson explores various aspects of African history, including contributions to science, mathematics, and the early foundations of civilization.The book serves as a powerful critique of prevailing Western-centric views and encourages readers to reconsider their understanding of Africa's historical role. Jackson's work is part of a broader movement that advocates for a more inclusive and accurate portrayal of African history. While it has been both praised for its groundbreaking efforts and criticized for its polemical style, "Ethiopia and the Origin of Civilization" remains a significant text that challenges readers to reevaluate and appreciate the rich historical heritage of African civilizations.
