Sinossi

The Iraq War examines the multifaceted factors leading to the 2003 invasion, emphasizing the long-lasting global consequences and the reshaping of the Middle East. It argues that the war went beyond just eliminating weapons of mass destruction, highlighting the roles of neoconservative ambitions and deep-seated animosity towards Saddam Hussein’s Ba'athist regime. The book questions the accuracy of pre-war intelligence and explores how initial misunderstandings of Iraqi society fueled unintended consequences, contributing to regional instability and sectarian violence.

 
The book progresses chronologically, starting with the historical context of US-Iraq relations and US foreign policy in the Middle East. It then analyzes the buildup to the war, the military campaign, the occupation, and the descent into civil war. A significant part of the analysis is dedicated to ISIS's rise as a direct result of the power vacuum created by the conflict. The work draws from declassified documents, firsthand accounts, and international reports, aiming to offer a balanced and nuanced perspective on the political decisions and intelligence failures.

    The only Latin art of war to survive, Vegetius’ Epitome was for long a part of the medieval prince’s military education. The core of his proposals, the maintenance of a professional standing army, was revolutionary for medieval Europe, while his theory of deterrence through strength remains the foundation of modern Western defence policy.

    1: You may have heard about him: Attila the Hun. Let's discover who this individual actually was and why he has such a bad track record of being a callous, aggressive conqueror in the first millennium after Christ.

Also, he was the leader of a tribal realm which consisted mainly of Huns, Ostrogoths, Alans and Bulgars, to name a few, in Central Europe and in Eastern Europe. 
    In this guide, you will learn more about the wars, his enemies, the battles around Rome, his life, his death, and his legacy. Some of the information about his has been falsely attributed to certain details because of how much has been lost in historical records, but we can still get a slightly accurate image of who he was, what he did, and why he has become such an infamous figure. 
    2: Genghis Khan was the Mongol emperor who has expanded his region to the biggest empire on the face of the earth ever. His empire stretched from East Asia all the way to various European countries, the Middle East, and beyond. 
      
    What made Genghis Khan so successful? 
      
    Was he a brute, rapist, and pillaging dictator, or did he have a tolerant side as well? 
      
    How do the people in Mongolia see him, or the people in China? 
      
    All o these questions and more will be answered in this comprehensive overview of the history of Genghis Khan. You will learn more about his early life, his relationships, marriage, families and children, his attacks, his unification of the Mongolian Federations, his death, succession, and the continuing of the Mongolian Empire after his death.

    Sydney Bay was discovered by European explorers in 1770. Populated at first by colonial convicts and their guards, the city today accounts for one fifth of the entire population of Australia. Renowned for its Opera House, it presents an ultramodern vista to the tourists’ gaze. Sydney Harbour Bridge - one of the longest bridges in the world - and the immense high-rise buildings that sore skywards both astound and fascinate. At the same time the great city is truly cosmopolitan, incorporating a celebrated Chinatown and even more prominently an Aboriginal area in which the colourful way of life of these first Australians is plainly to be seen.

    Chile's Economic Journey - From...

    Chile’s economic history is a complex tale of growth, struggle, and transformation, reflecting the broader trajectory of Latin America. From its colonial roots to its modern-day status as one of South America’s most stable economies, Chile has undergone significant changes, shaped by internal dynamics and global forces. This chapter provides an overview of Chile’s economic evolution, emphasizing the historical context that has influenced its development. 
    The story begins with the Spanish colonization of Chile in the 16th century. During the colonial period, the economy was primarily centered around the extraction of natural resources, particularly silver and gold, though these industries were not as developed as in other parts of Latin America. Instead, Chile’s economic foundation rested on agriculture, particularly the production of crops such as wheat and the raising of livestock. The Spanish settlers also introduced a feudal landholding system, which entrenched social hierarchies that persisted long after independence. 
    Chile's path to independence in the early 19th century marked the beginning of its economic transition. As the country sought to build its identity and self-sufficiency, early economic policies focused on fostering local industries. However, the nation faced significant challenges, including political instability, internal conflicts, and a lack of infrastructure. These early years were marked by attempts to diversify the economy, but Chile's reliance on agriculture, particularly wheat exports, continued to dominate.
