Global New History

A young archaeologist is gazing at a huge stone block, his heart filled with curiosity and awe for ancient civilizations. His gaze seems to travel through time and space, back to the cradle of human civilization - the Mesopotamian plain. There, the ancient Sumerians created the world's earliest writing and urban civilization. Their wisdom is like brilliant stars, illuminating the beginning of human history. As time passes, the sparks of human civilization ignite in different regions. The glory of ancient Greek city-states is remarkable. Athens' democratic system, Sparta's martial spirit, and the wisdom of numerous philosophers have jointly forged the glory of ancient Greek civilization. During this period, thinkers like Plato and Aristotle have had a profound influence. Their pursuit of truth and reflection on human nature have laid the foundation for the development of philosophy in later generations. In the far east, Qin Shi Huang unified the six kingdoms and established a vast empire. The construction of the Great Wall testifies to the tenacity and wisdom of the Chinese nation. It is not only a military defense line but also a symbol of the unity and struggle of the Chinese nation. Qin Shi Huang's great unification opened a new chapter in Chinese history, and his political system and cultural policies have had a profound impact on later generations. In India, the glory of the Maurya Dynasty and the spread of Buddhism have influenced the entire Asia. Ashoka's rule brought India to an unprecedented prosperity, and the teachings of Buddhism spread to neighboring countries along with trade and cultural exchanges. The compassion, wisdom, and peace concept of Buddhism have injected new vitality into the development of human civilization. As time goes by, medieval Europe fell into darkness. The constraints of feudalism, the oppression of religion, and frequent wars made the people of Europe live in dire straits. However, the dawn of the Renaissance brought new hope. The masterpieces of artists like Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo have become treasures of human civilization. With their outstanding artistic talent, they have demonstrated human creativity and the pursuit of beauty. The Silk Road connects the east and the west, bringing the blending of trade and culture. Chinese silk, tea, and porcelain are transported to the west through the Silk Road, while western spices, gems, and cultures also enter China. This ancient trade route not only promotes economic development but also strengthens exchanges and cooperation between different civilizations. At the same time, wars are constantly changing the world pattern. Alexander the Great's eastern expedition spread Greek culture to the east and promoted the integration of eastern and western cultures. The western expedition of the Mongol cavalry swept across Eurasia and established a vast empire. Although wars have brought destruction and pain, they have also promoted exchanges and integration between different ethnic groups.

That Time Africa Met Asia

Waking up in a body that is more than five years younger than your original body is scary. Top that with being one of the few of your 'so-called race,' which hasn't been seen by the majority of the population, on this side of the world for centuries, really throws one off. Not to mention some kid is desperately trying to marry you for some reason. Memories of the owner from the past and future keep clashing with your modern memories and ideals, sending our mc into a whirlwind of a messy life I can't believe I was sent back in time?! I know I always wanted to go visit South Korea but this is ridiculous! I can't live in this historical era, especially with my skin colour!? If you can stand out in modern times in said country. What makes you think you will be any better in historical times?! And I don't know how to speak Hangul yet?! Aahh!!! Imagine being hated or feared for the colour of your skin... Now imagine going 500 years, give or take, back in time. I love these people but right now I really want to kill somebody's son! Living life multiple times, a continuous cycle that you keep living for some reason and can't break out of. Living only to die by your own blood brother's hands or your own foolishness is something truly pitiful. A boy trying to stay alive and live past twenty meets our mc who is trying to find her way in this world that paints her as a black sheep. She is his only ticket to survival, so he thinks. There is no guarantee but he's willing to try whatever it takes to escape his cruel fate of dying and coming back to life only to live in fear of being murdered in cold blood by the people you call family Hated, treated like garbage simply because your birth mother drugged and slept with a married man. She is the one who did wrong, why must he pay for her sins? The sins of the parents do not fall on the children, only the consequences. He's prepared to pay it in full. But if he must pay for his mother's sins, then so shall the son of the two executioners for condemning a once innocent soul...Now that he's back, all hell shall befall those who get in his way Three lost and lonely souls find their way to each other, one would say it is fate but when one is given the chance to change his and another is given a new life. Can we truly still say fate is one predetermined path that has been set out for you from the day you were born
