    Between King Cotton and Queen Victoria recenters our understanding of the Civil War by framing it as a hemispheric affair, deeply influenced by the actions of a network of private parties and minor officials in the Confederacy and British territory in and around North America. John Wilkes Booth likely would not have been in a position to assassinate Abraham Lincoln, for example, without the logistical support and assistance of the pro-Confederate network in Canada. That network, to which he was personally introduced in Montreal in the fall of 1864, was hosted and facilitated by willing colonials across the hemisphere. Many of its Confederate members arrived in British North America via a long-established transportation and communications network built around British colonies, especially Bermuda and the Bahamas, whose primary purpose was running the blockade. It is difficult to overstate how essential blockade running was for the rebellion's survival, and it would have been impossible without the aid of sympathetic colonials. The operations of this informal, semiprivate network were of enormous consequence for the course of the war and its aftermath, and our understanding of the Civil War is incomplete without a deeper reckoning with the power and potential for chaos of these private networks imbued with the power of a state.

    In these pages, you won't find fairy tale advice. You'll find a battle plan. 
    Discover:Why men cheat even when they "love" youHow to install fear, consequence, and accountability without raising your voiceThe psychological warfare that flips the power dynamic in your favorHow to chain a cheater emotionally, financially, sexually—and spirituallyWhen to walk away, when to punish, and when to reward consistency 
    This book is your weapon. It's your shield. It's the reality check every woman needs before wasting another tear on an unfaithful man. With dark humor, razor-sharp insights, and no sugarcoating, author A.A. Castor hands women the blueprint to take control, reclaim respect, and—if you choose to stay—make him fear the price of losing you more than he craves the thrill of betrayal. 
    If you've ever whispered, "He'll change if I love him harder," this book will scream back: 
    "He'll only change when it costs him more to lose you than to keep you."

    The Tang Dynasty (618–907 CE) emerged after the collapse of the short-lived Sui Dynasty, which had failed due to internal strife, heavy taxation, and forced labor projects that drained the empire’s resources. The fall of the Sui created a power vacuum, allowing various factions to vie for control. Amid this turmoil, Li Yuan, a former Sui general, led a successful rebellion and established the Tang Dynasty in 618 CE, taking the throne as Emperor Gaozu. His leadership set the foundation for one of China’s most influential and prosperous dynasties. 
    Emperor Gaozu focused on stabilizing the empire by reforming the government, lowering excessive taxes, and restoring order to a nation weakened by years of misrule. However, his reign was relatively short-lived as his son, Li Shimin, proved to be a more capable leader. In 626 CE, Li Shimin forced his father to abdicate and took the throne as Emperor Taizong. His ascension marked the true consolidation of Tang power and the beginning of an era of expansion, reform, and cultural advancement. 
    Under Emperor Taizong’s rule, the Tang Dynasty established a strong centralized government based on Confucian principles. He refined the imperial examination system, ensuring that officials were chosen based on merit rather than birthright. This system allowed for the creation of a competent and efficient bureaucracy, which would become a hallmark of Tang governance. Additionally, Taizong worked to solidify China’s borders by engaging in strategic military campaigns. His army pushed westward into Central Asia, securing control over key trade routes and strengthening the empire’s influence along the Silk Road. These military victories, combined with diplomatic relations with neighboring states, positioned the Tang Dynasty as a dominant force in East Asia.

    The Irish Troubles - Conflict...

    The deep divisions that came to define the Troubles in Northern Ireland have their roots in centuries of conflict, conquest, and colonization. The split between the largely Catholic Irish population and the Protestant settlers brought by British rule laid the groundwork for enduring hostility. This divide was not merely religious but deeply political and cultural, with Catholic nationalists largely advocating for a united Ireland, while Protestant unionists were loyal to the British crown and sought to remain part of the United Kingdom. These opposing identities hardened over time, especially in the north, where British colonization during the 16th and 17th centuries planted a Protestant presence in predominantly Catholic lands, most notably in the province of Ulster. 
    The 1921 partition of Ireland formalized the division, creating Northern Ireland as a separate political entity within the United Kingdom. While the south eventually became the Republic of Ireland, the north remained under British control with a Protestant-majority government. This arrangement was viewed by many Catholics as both illegitimate and oppressive, fostering a sense of exclusion and marginalization. Protestants, in turn, felt under siege by the threat of Irish republicanism and feared losing their political and cultural dominance. The new state was marked from the beginning by systemic discrimination against the Catholic minority in areas such as housing, employment, and political representation. 
    Tensions simmered for decades, occasionally flaring into violence, but it was in the 1960s that the situation began to unravel. Inspired by civil rights movements elsewhere, Northern Irish Catholics began organizing protests demanding equal treatment and an end to institutionalized bias. The state’s heavy-handed response to these demonstrations, combined with Protestant fears of losing control, only intensified the divide.
