  Learn more about the history of those countries. The topics addressed will be these: 
  Angkor Wat-- The temple was built as the state temple for the Khmer Empire at the demand of Suryavarman II in the early 12th century in Yaodharapura (, contemporary Angkor), the Khmer Empire's capital. It was constructed in the early 12th century to honor the Hindu god Vishnu, but by the end of the century, it had been changed to a Buddhist temple. 
  Angkor Wat is a fascinating structure, dating back hundreds of years, and it’s impressive how much of it has remained intact. 
  The Khmer Empire--Historians describe Cambodia as the Khmer State or the Angkorian Empire (Khmer:) from the 9th century to the 15th century, when it was a Hindu/Buddhist empire in Southeast Asia. The empire, which developed from the old societies of Funan and Chenla, governed and/or "vassalized" the majority of mainland Southeast Asia and parts of Southern China, covering from the suggestion of the Indochinese Peninsula northward to modern-day Yunnan province in China, and from Vietnam westward to Myanmar. The Khmer Empire was greater at its peak than the Byzantine Empire (Eastern Roman Empire) that existed at the exact same period. 
  The Siamese-- Siam was just a much different name for what's now referred to as Thailand. The Siamese are the people who live there, though they're never ever called as such any longer. 
  Thailand is a fascinating country, with its own culinary arts, culture, history, royalty, infrastructure, and influence on the world. To learn more about these “Thai” people before they were called Thai, when they were Siamese, is to learn about those people’s roots.

  Mindfulness is exceptionally easy to get started with, and people often experience benefits almost immediately. Why, then, do many initial enthusiasts end up dropping the practice after a short while? 
  According to Oxford professor and leading mindfulness expert Willem Kuyken, it's because traditional mindfulness training is too far removed from how we actually live. This next-generation resource brings mindfulness home by teaching core skills in easy-to-integrate ways that touch directly on life's daily challenges. In his calm, encouraging voice, Dr. Kuyken provides stepping stones to help you build a personal practice that is sustainable, purposeful, and richly rewarding--now and for years to come. Interweaving ancient wisdom and modern scientific psychology, the book includes stories engagingly read by multiple narrators, quotations, reflection questions, tips for overcoming hurdles, and compelling guided practices.

  The Dark Ages

  "The world was changing, but it was not ending."
  
  Spanning nearly five centuries of transformation, Sir Charles Oman's classic work deconstructs the myth of the "Dark Ages" as a period of mere ignorance. Instead, he reveals a vibrant, violent, and crucial era where the wreckage of the Roman Empire was forged into the foundations of modern Europe. From the deposition of Romulus Augustulus to the death of Charles the Fat, Oman provides a sweeping narrative of the men and movements that shaped the West.
  
  The Clash of Civilizations: Oman masterfully tracks the rise and fall of dynasties. Witness the struggle of the Byzantine Empire to hold the East against the rising tide of Islam, the brutal expansion of the Frankish kings, and the terrifying shadow of the Viking raids. This is a history of grand strategy and battlefield tactics, where the author's expertise in military history shines through every chapter.
  
  The Pillars of the Middle Ages: Beyond the battlefield, The Dark Ages explores the intellectual and religious shifts of the era. Follow the influence of the papacy, the preservation of classical knowledge in monasteries, and the administrative genius of Charlemagne's Renaissance. Oman proves that this was an age of intense creativity and political evolution, setting the stage for the Crusades and the feudal system that would follow.
  
  History written with the precision of a scholar and the soul of a storyteller. Purchase "The Dark Ages" today and rediscover the roots of the Western world.

  Why Vote - How to make your...

  Swamped beneath the tide of fake news, wars on woke and social media storms lies democracy. Jo Phillips and David Seymour guide the reader through the workings of government and Parliament and make a passionate case for the power of democracy. Their argument is that young people should take back control of the future, hold politicians to account and get involved.
  In the last decade we've had a Brexit referendum, the Covid pandemic, war in Ukraine and Gaza, increasing fears over the climate emergency, a new monarch and since 2010, six Prime Ministers.
  Britain's influence in the world has been diminished, freedom to protest peacefully has been curtailed, the cost of further education is a concern, the health service is in crisis and the likelihood of owning your own home or even finding somewhere to rent is becoming less and less.
  If younger people turned out to vote in the same numbers that older people do, this country would be a very different place. Apathy is the enemy, not the answer.
