Venetian Empire - The Grand...

Kelly Mass

When we think of Venice, we think of masks, canals, murals and frescoes, and little “gondoliers” with picturesque boats. Venice, indeed, has an impressive artistic history. But did you know that Venice was also, for a while, a considerably-sized empire? 
Although no enduring historic records associate with the creation of Venice, the Republic of Venice's history is typically said to start at 12 a.m. on Friday, March 25th, AD 421, when authorities from Padua established the city to develop a trading center in that area of northern Italy. 
The creation of the Venetian republic is said to have accompanied the starting of the church of St. James at the exact same time. Still, the church (which is believed to be that of Saint Giacomo di Rialto) dates no earlier than the l lth century, and no after the mid-twelfth century. 
According to legend, the area's first residents were Hun and Germanic refugees escaping succeeding waves of Hun and Germanic intrusions from the mid-second to mid-fifth centuries, who originated from near Roman cities like Padua, Aquileia, Treviso, Altino, and Concordia (contemporary Concordia Sagittaria), and the undefended countryside. 
Let’s dive deeper into the history of the Venetian Empire. Let’s find out what made them so unique and successful at what they did.

From Steppe to Skyline

Reece Davis

From the vast silence of the Mongolian steppe to the glowing towers of the modern metropolis, Reece Davis follows the arc of human movement — the long migration from open land to crowded streets, from nomad to citizen. 
In From Steppe to Skyline, Davis journeys across continents and centuries, exploring how landscapes shape people — and how people, in turn, shape their surroundings. Through encounters with shepherds, artisans, and city dwellers, he uncovers the enduring human rhythm that connects wilderness and civilization, solitude and society. 
Blending travel writing, history, and philosophy, Davis paints a portrait of the world’s great transformation — and asks whether progress has brought us closer to one another, or simply further from the wild places that made us. 
Expansive, wise, and deeply human, From Steppe to Skyline is a meditation on movement, belonging, and the evolving map of what we call home.
