  This book consists of 5 topics related to German history, which are the following: 
  Clausewitz - Carl von Clausewitz, a Prussian general and military theorist, remains one of the most influential figures in the study of warfare. Born in 1780 in Prussia, Clausewitz entered the military at a young age, where he quickly distinguished himself as a talented strategist and thinker. 
  Kaiser Wilhelm II - Wilhelm II, the last German Emperor (Kaiser) and King of Prussia, ruled from June 15, 1888, until his abdication on November 9, 1918, marking the end of the German Empire. His reign was tumultuous, characterized by grand ambitions and disastrous decisions that not only reshaped Germany but also contributed to the broader context of global conflict. 
  Prussia - Prussia, once a powerful and influential German state, traces its origins back to 1525, when it began as a duchy focused on the region near the southeast coast of the Baltic Sea. Over the centuries, it would grow to play a pivotal role in European history, especially through its military and political influence. 
  The Berlin Wall - From 1961 until 1989, the Berlin Wall stood as a stark symbol of division, not only physically separating the city of Berlin but also representing the broader ideological rift between the East and the West during the Cold War. On August 13, 1961, the German Democratic Republic (GDR), or East Germany, began constructing this formidable barrier. 
  Visigoths - The Visigoths were a significant Germanic people whose influence shaped the course of European history during late antiquity, a period commonly known as the Migration Period. Along with their eastern counterparts, the Ostrogoths, they were among the most powerful and notable Gothic factions within the Roman Empire during its decline.

  The Wonderfull Wizard of Oz

  The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is an American children's novel written by author L. Frank Baum and illustrated by W. W. Denslow. The first novel in the Oz books, the Kansas farm girl named Dorothy ends up in the magical Land of Oz after she and her pet dog Toto are swept away from their home by a tornado. Upon her arrival in Oz, she learns she cannot return home until she has destroyed the Wicked Witch of the West. The book was first published in the United States in May 1900 by the George M. Hill Company. In January 1901, the publishing company completed printing the first edition, a total of 10,000 copies, which quickly sold out. It had sold three million copies by the time it entered the public domain in 1956. It was often reprinted under the title The Wizard of Oz, which is the title of the successful 1902 Broadway musical adaptation as well as the classic 1939 live-action film. The ground-breaking success of both the original 1900 novel and the 1902 Broadway musical prompted Baum to write thirteen additional Oz books which serve as official sequels to the first story. Over a century later, the book is one of the best-known stories in American literature, and the Library of Congress has declared the work to be "America's greatest and best-loved homegrown fairytale."

  Salon's inaugural sex and love advice columnist and author of the viral LinkedIn sex work post, Arielle Egozi, shares their journey as a queer, neurodivergent child of immigrants who never quite fit into the social roles she was supposed to, instead choosing to embrace their multiple dimensions, and eventually discovering freedom—and true power—by being "bad" in a world that kept trying to force her to be "good." 
   
   
   
  With Arielle's personal and relatable guidance, listeners will learn how to: escape the male gaze for good; release the shame they've internalized; make their friends the loves of their lives; embrace their inner domme and reclaim their power; ditch relationship hierarchy to build the relationship(s) of their dreams; discover that sex positivity isn't about having sex at all. 
   
   
   
  Using frameworks and philosophies cultivated from years of living, writing, speaking, and educating on sex, relationships, and identity through a queer and decolonizing lens, Arielle offers questions, practices, and tools to help you find your own power and step into it—creating space for you to dream far beyond what your family, society, or capitalist culture expects. Being Bad offers you the permission to become who you are, however you choose to be.

  In The Decisive Decade, Dr. Jonathan D. T. Ward offers a comprehensive framework for how the US can, and must, defeat China on the world stage economically, diplomatically, militarily, and ideologically. International security and American supremacy are at stake—and now is the time for the US to take action. China's global power and influence grows every day. Working from a deep sense of national identity, the Chinese Communist Party is leading its country toward what it deems "the great rejuvenation of the Chinese Nation," and executing a long-term Grand Strategy to topple over its chief adversary, the US. As China becomes increasingly repressive domestically and aggressive overseas, it threatens to upend America's global dominance at every turn. 
   
   
   
  Ward provides novel and practical strategies that our government, as well as our businesses and our citizens, can utilize to undermine our adversary. Exhaustive campaigns in the economic, diplomatic, military, and ideological arenas, he argues, must be taken to achieve victory. With expert analysis of the history of US-China relations, as well as insight into how the Russia-Ukrainian war can inform our strategic thinking, The Decisive Decade presents a unique toolkit for our triumph over China. We can succeed, but it won't be easy; it will take all of our nation's ingenuity, confidence, and willpower to win.

  Decoding Hindu Chronology

  Since ancient times, the Hindus have had a lunisolar cycle based on the combination of solar and lunar years, determined by the course of the sun and the moon, but with the lunar year beginning near the solar year. Exactly how their earliest Calendar was arranged remains a mystery. Our focus is on the current form of their Calendar, developed around 400 under the influence of Greek astronomy and introduced into India at no long time. 
  There are two kinds of Hindu years, solar and lunar.  
  To understand the lunar Calendar, we will first explain the solar year, which governs the lunisolar system. Bengal, including Madras's Orissa, Tamil, and Malayalam districts, used solar years for civil purposes. General religious rites and festivals are regulated by the lunar year and the details of private and domestic life, such as choosing auspicious occasions for marriages and journeys, choosing lucky moments for shaving, etc. Almanacs that follow the lunar year contain details about the solar year, such as the sun's course through the zodiac signs. Despite following the solar year, almanacs include lunar year details.
