What Makes It Stand Out from Other Content

The Values of This Blog

Cross-Ocean Integration

Unlike single-region historical content, it connects Eastern and Western civilizations (Europe, Asia, Africa, Americas) across five centuries, presenting a truly global historical perspective.

Dual Perspective

Balances "progress" (industrial/tech leaps) and "conflicts" (wars/colonialism), avoiding one-sided narratives to show the complexity of historical development.

Modern History

Continuous Timeline

Spans 500 years from 1525 to 2025 without fragmentation, tracing the evolution of human society from the Old World to the digital era.

Civilizational Mutual Learning

Goes beyond knowledge dissemination—focuses on eliminating cultural misunderstandings through historical connections, with a clear value of cross-cultural understanding.
