Collections
History rhymes. Each collection gathers stories from different places and decades that share a theme, so you can see how the same kind of event played out around the world.
A new collection is added every week.
Revolutions in the name of faith
Prophets, rebel armies and clerics who tried to remake whole countries around their faith, from Qing China to the Iranian Revolution.
When nature struck
Volcanoes, earthquakes, storms and droughts that destroyed cities, moved whole populations and changed how people build and plan.
Communist revolutions and coups
How communist parties came to power around the world: in mass uprisings, after long civil wars, and in quiet coups backed by the army.
