【實用書籍app】150 Years of World History - HD Snapshots of the Past|最夯免費app-綠色工廠好玩App

Just 150 years ago the world was an entirely different place: the British Empire stretched from one corner of the globe to the other, whether the theoretical 'flying machine' could really be created was a matter of fierce debate, the US was on the verge of civil war, colonial powers warred over territory in Africa, there was no motorized car, no Sherlock Holmes, no Bram Stoker's Dracula, no telephone, no Statue of Liberty, Iran was Persia, Turkey was the Ottoman Empire, conflict was rampant, and yet the total world population was scarcely greater than that of China today.

In '150 Years of History: Snapshots of the Past' we watch the world change one year at a time, as it moves from the late Age of Empires through two world wars, the Cold War, and modern times. While years such as 1914, 1939, 1945, 1969 and so on are ingrained upon the minds of most, every year carries its own importance and this app focuses both on the large defining events of history as well as some lesser-known but still important developments that took place.
