  Tulip Mania - The First Economic...

  Tulip Mania, often considered the first recorded speculative bubble in history, took place during the Dutch Golden Age in the early 17th century. This period saw some tulip bulbs, which had been newly introduced to Europe, achieve extraordinary prices. The peak of the tulip market occurred in 1634, with prices reaching unbelievable levels before plummeting drastically in February 1637. This event is frequently cited as an early example of an asset bubble, where the prices of goods diverged dramatically from their intrinsic value. The tulip mania of the 1630s remains one of the most notable cases of speculative fever in financial history. 
  Despite the frenzied speculation surrounding tulips, the overall economic impact on the Dutch Republic was limited. While the tulip mania itself was a unique socio-economic event, it did not significantly harm the prosperity of the Dutch economy. In fact, the Dutch Republic was one of the world's leading economic and financial powers during the 17th century, boasting the highest per capita income in the world from around 1600 to 1720. The country’s financial and economic institutions were advanced, and its economy continued to thrive even as the tulip market collapsed. Today, the term "tulip mania" has evolved into a metaphor used to describe any situation in which asset prices become detached from their underlying value, only to be followed by a sharp decline.

  LOOK, NOBODY'S GOING TO SUGARCOAT IT - GERMAN HAS A REPUTATION 
  Four grammar cases. Crazy long words. Those guttural sounds that make your throat hurt. 
  Everyone's heard the jokes. Your friends probably laughed when you said you were learning German. "Good luck with that," they said. 
  But here's what nobody tells you: German gets a bad rap it doesn't deserve. 
  The truth? If you speak English, you're already halfway there. German and English are linguistic cousins - thousands of words are nearly identical. "Water" is "Wasser." "Book" is "Buch." You already know more German than you think. 
  The real problem isn't German itself. It's how most people try to learn it - drowning in grammar tables before they can even say "Guten Tag." 
  "Conversational German Dialogues" by Language Mastery flips that approach completely. 
  HERE'S WHAT ACTUALLY WORKS: 
  ✓ 100+ real conversations by native German speakers - the German people actually use in Berlin, Munich, and Vienna 
  ✓ Two-speed audio: Start slow to nail pronunciation, then speed up as your brain catches on 
  ✓ Story-driven learning that's actually interesting - vocabulary just sticks while you're entertained 
  ✓ Grammar you absorb naturally - no memorizing tables, just learning like kids do 
  ✓ Quick comprehension checks so you know you're progressing 
  ✓ Practical vocabulary for real situations 
  IN 30 DAYS YOU'LL: 
  ✓ Stop being intimidated and start enjoying German 
  ✓ Understand native speakers without panicking 
  ✓ Speak with confidence (even if your grammar isn't perfect yet) 
  ✓ Open doors to career opportunities in Europe's largest economy 
  No grammar drills. No boring textbooks. No feeling stupid. 
  Just real German that makes sense. The kind that gets you talking. 
  READY TO PROVE EVERYONE WRONG ABOUT GERMAN BEING "TOO HARD"? START NOW.

  Learn more about the history of those countries. The topics addressed will be the following: 
  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.
