  The story of the Liao people begins in the vast and harsh steppe regions to the north of China, where they first emerged as a formidable force in the region’s history. The Liao were a nomadic group, characterized by their mastery of horseback riding and combat, which set them apart from the sedentary agricultural societies of the surrounding civilizations. Their origins are not fully understood, but it is widely believed that they came from the Mongolian Plateau, migrating southward and eastward into the northern reaches of China during the early centuries of the Common Era. 
  In their early years, the Liao people were organized into various tribes, each with its own leadership and customs. These tribes were constantly in motion, following the migratory patterns of their livestock and engaging in periodic warfare with one another for dominance and resources. Despite the chaotic nature of their existence, the Liao were bound together by a common identity rooted in their nomadic lifestyle and warrior culture. Over time, they developed a strong sense of unity, driven by their shared need to survive in an unforgiving environment. 
  As the tribes of the Liao people grew in number and influence, they began to organize themselves more systematically under the leadership of powerful chieftains. These chieftains rose to prominence not only through their military prowess but also through their ability to forge alliances and broker peace with neighboring peoples. The Liao were skilled diplomats, and many of their early leaders recognized the value of creating relationships with the settled agricultural societies that dominated China’s northern frontier. This strategic diplomacy allowed them to secure critical resources, such as grain and horses, while maintaining their autonomy and military strength.

  The Sixth History of Man

  In the spirit of medieval writer Chaucer, all human activity lies within the artist’s scope, the History of Man Series uses medicine as a jumping off point to explore precisely that, all history, all science, all human activity since the beginning of time. The jumping off style of writing takes the reader, the listener into worlds unknown, always returning to base, only to jump off again. History of Man are stories and tales of nearly everything. 
  The Sixth History of Man is the last narrative in the History of Man Series that uses infection as the underlying foundation. The series will continue but use other disease platforms for jumping off. From a human infection perspective, this sixth book will visit with the King of Pop Michael Jackson, vitiligo and propofol, the famous and infamous sexually transmitted diseases—herpes, gonorrhea, chlamydia, trichomonas, HIV and the granddaddy of colorful stories, syphilis—with their very entertaining tales, a world of romance, suspense, and thrillers. We’ll hop from science to art to music, going back in time to the astronomy of the Persians, Syrians, the Greek Aristotle and on to Ptolemy, Copernicus and Kepler. Our travels will take us to the Renaissance of art and music, stopping along a few stations, such as da Vinci, Michelangelo, Rembrandt, and Monet. A discussion of why and how humans went from spoken language to written language is on our menu. We will pay homage with another visit with the First Viennese School, parse senility, delirium, and dementia and most assuredly discuss the women who helped build Johns Hopkins Hospital. OK Boomers! and the sociology of cohort generations will help complete this narrative.
