    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 site of Angkor, in modern-day Cambodia, which worked as the Khmer capital throughout the empire's prime time, is maybe its most long-lasting tradition. The stunning Angkor structures, like Angkor Wat and Bayon, attest to the Khmer Empire's incredible strength and wealth, remarkable art and culture, architectural strategy, visual accomplishments, and the series of belief systems that it bought from in time. Angkor was the world's biggest pre-industrial cosmopolitan center between the 11th and 13th centuries, according to satellite photography. 
    Let’s learn more about what we know about the happenings in this vast empire from so long ago.

    He believes that when you learn from real stories of real people and selfless insiders, you can prepare yourself better on how to deal with change, relocation, and other major shifts in life. You can take the necessary actions to maximize gains, minimize pains, and achieve your goals.

    Noli Me Tangere is a landmark novel in Philippine literature and a foundational work of political fiction. Written by national hero José Rizal, it exposes the corruption, abuse, and oppression endured by Filipinos under Spanish colonial rule and the Catholic clergy. The story follows Crisóstomo Ibarra, a young Filipino who returns from Europe intent on reforming society through education and progress, only to face betrayal, injustice, and the ruthless power of the friars. Blending romance, realism, and revolutionary critique, Rizal’s novel ignited nationalist sentiment and laid the intellectual groundwork for the Philippine Revolution. A powerful indictment of colonial tyranny, Noli Me Tangere remains a testament to the struggle for freedom, justice, and national identity.

    Vergil - The Poets Life

    A biography of Vergil, Rome’s greatest poet, by the acclaimed translator of the Aeneid 
     
    The Aeneid stands as a towering work of Classical Roman literature and a gripping dramatization of the best and worst of human nature. In the process of creating this epic poem, Vergil (70–19 BCE) became the world’s first media celebrity, a living legend. 
     
    But the real Vergil is a shadowy figure; we know that he was born into a modest rural family, that he led a private and solitary life, and that, in spite of poor health and unusual emotional vulnerabilities, he worked tirelessly to achieve exquisite new effects in verse. Vergil’s most famous work, the Aeneid, was commissioned by the emperor Augustus, who published the epic despite Vergil’s dying wish that it be destroyed. 
     
    Sarah Ruden, widely praised for her translation of the Aeneid, uses evidence from Roman life and history alongside Vergil’s own writings to make careful deductions to reconstruct his life. Through her intimate knowledge of Vergil’s work, she brings to life a poet who was committed to creating something astonishingly new and memorable, even at great personal cost.
