History is not simply about recording events; what historians debate is far from trivial details. The ultimate goal of learning history should be to extract patterns and principles from the development of real historical events to guide our current lives. This book follows a timeline, starting from the emergence of humans 35 million years ago and ending in the 21st century. From the middle volume onwards, it provides detailed descriptions of each century, divided geographically into Europe, Asia, America, Africa, and Oceania. The content covers all aspects of human society, including politics, economy, culture, and technology. From the ancient empires of Egypt, Babylon, Greece, Rome, China, and India, to the religious wars, religious reforms, Renaissance, and Enlightenment after the Middle Ages, it evolves into the Industrial Revolution, struggles for independence, world wars, and the major events of human society entering the 21st century. The book strives to describe real history with fairness and tolerance, supplemented by rich and even invaluable historical images, allowing readers to gain a more sensory and intuitive understanding of the entire human history spanning millions of years. We believe readers will gain a comprehensive understanding of the entire course of human society from this innovative and multi-faceted World History. More importantly, they will be able to elevate rational and constructive insights based on reliable historical records, thereby genuinely guiding our ever-evolving modern lives.
