Features: People often say, "History is created by humans." In fact, this contains two meanings: First, history is the track of human activities, and the past human activities constitute the entire content of history. Second, what we can read is the creation of historians, a spiritual product, which is actually an interpretation of historians' past human activities. So, from this perspective, any history book is a subjective creation by historians based on certain historical facts and following some historical theories, which is an interpretation. This book discusses various civilizations in detail, referring to the chronological order of civilizations worldwide. It emphasizes the diversity of civilizations and the reasons for their uniqueness, complexity, and diversity, and argues that the exchange between civilizations plays an important role in promoting the formation of this diversity.
