Features: The world shines through history, and history extends through the world. The mythical Kunpeng spreads its wings for ninety thousand li, with a magnificent and vast presence spanning the ages. The history of humanity in the world began, slowly and with, its five thousand-year path to clarity amidst the debate between the evolution of extraterrestrial civilizations and the geocentric theory. The eternal pyramids and the mystery of the Stag Hypothesis, the sacred magic of the Egyptian pharaohs—all originate from the myths of the sun god and the celestial river civilization in the land of China. The betrayal of the Egyptian queen and the elopement of the eternal beauty, Helen of Sparta, lead to the most romantic chapter in the history of world politics and warfare—the era of Homer's epics. When feudalism and theocracy reigned supreme in the medieval era, the great poet Dante, an angel deeply in love with his first love, Beatrice, couldn’t help but imagine endlessly, unable to sleep. With a gentle breeze and the morning sun at his window, his masterpiece, "The Divine Comedy," sounded the trumpet of a new century. Based on the shared ideals and historical conscience of all humanity, witnesses to the joys and sorrows of distant ages, and bearers of responsibility and mission, gather their common focal point beyond the histories of individual nations, combining various artistic techniques to vividly depict a brand-new panorama of world historical transformation.
