Features: Since the dawn of humanity, our boundless wisdom, diligent hands, and love for life have created great civilizations that have endured through the ages. The mysterious Egyptian pyramids, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the Dead Sea Scrolls, the Parthenon Temple—these ancient remnants of wisdom all tell the story of the splendid and glorious 5,000 years of human civilization. However, the course of history has also been a thorny and arduous path: one abduction brought the Trojans ten years of war and the destruction of their city; a symbol of a nation's highest authority became the emblem of fascist dictatorship; the travel diary of an Italian merchant's son led to the discovery of the New World; the heroic act of a patriotic man resulted in the downfall of his homeland; and the Czech people, in their fight for autonomy, threw the king's envoy into a trench, triggering the first large-scale international war in European history.
This book, organized chronologically, vividly and engagingly weaves together the ancient civilizations, social changes, wars, historical figures, major scientific and geographical discoveries of the past 5,000 years into a series of fascinating stories. From the earliest civilizations of humanity to the founding of the United Nations, the book narrates the course of human history in accessible language, aiming to introduce children to history in a light-hearted and enjoyable way, allowing them to appreciate the artistic charm and infinite allure of great civilizations.
The fresh text and brilliant illustrations complement and enhance each other, softening the dryness, complexity, and mystery of history. This fosters curiosity and a desire for knowledge in children, encouraging them to follow the descriptions in the book and explore the grandeur of human civilization. Amidst this reading atmosphere, they are immersed in the splendid halls of civilization, gaining valuable knowledge and experiencing the joy of the heart.
