A Chronological Particular Timeline of Near East and Europe History
Introduction This compilation was begun merely to be a synthesized, occasional source for other writings, primarily for familiarization with European world development. Gradually, however, it was forced to come to grips with the elephantine amount of historical detail in certain classical sources. Recording the numbers of reported war deaths in previous history (many thousands, here and there!) initially was done with little contemplation but eventually, with the near‐exponential number of Humankind battles (not just major ones; inter‐tribal, dynastic, and inter‐regional), mind was caused to pause and ask itself, “Why?” Awed by the numbers killed in battles over recorded time, one falls subject to believing the very occupation in war was a naturally occurring ancient inclination, no longer possessed by ‘enlightened’ Humankind. In our synthesized histories, however, details are confined to generals, geography, battle strategies and formations, victories and defeats, with precious little revealed of the highly complicated and combined subjective forces that generate and fuel war. Two territories of human existence are involved: material and psychological. Material includes land, resources, and freedom to maintain a life to which one feels entitled. It fuels war by emotions arising from either deprivation or conditioned expectations. Psychological embraces Egalitarian and Egoistical arenas. Egalitarian is fueled by emotions arising from either a need to improve conditions or defend what it has. To that category also belongs the individual for whom revenge becomes an end in itself. Egoistical is fueled by emotions arising from material possessiveness and self‐aggrandizations. To that category also belongs the individual for whom worldly power is an end in itself.

Syria is an ancient land with a rich history and has always been home to diverse cultures, *Correspondence: national. ethnicities and religions. Palmyra was an ancient civilization that arose during the second [email protected] century. Syria became part of the land of Islam in AD 640 and was a cultural, religious and artistic center. During the Middle Ages, Syria came under the control of the Crusaders and was part of the Ottoman Empire from the early fifteen hundreds until the end of the nineteenth century. During World War I it came under French influence and was recognized as an independent nation after World War II. In 1963, Hafez al-Assad led a military coup and since then, Syria has been ruled under emergency law. After al-Assad died in 2000, his son Bashar al-Assad was elected President in an uncontested presidential campaign. Before the current conflict, Syria had a population of approximately 22 million people but now about half the population have been displaced internally and into neighbouring countries, including approximately four million refugees. It is estimated that 250,000 people have died during the Syrian conflict. Suggested citation: Mazigh M. Syria: Land of history, civilizations and war.

Act I, Signature V - (1)
When the audience is known to be secretly skeptical of the reality that is being impressed upon them, we have been ready to appreciate their tendency to pounce upon trifling flaws as a sign that the whole show is false [Erving Goffman, The Presentation of Self (New York: Anchor Press, 1959), p. 51]. I - v - Give Me Seventeen Dollars for This Hat. Taxed by the forces besetting Damascus, the Sultan accedes to familial intrigue. The noted medical talk show host, Mr. Ng, surges to stage a live remote into the 13 th century. The various tools at his command are listed. The participants gather: the Idiopath of Jerusalem, the chorus, the Emperor Frederick II, al-Kamil, Sultan of Egypt, and the Rabbi Ben ‘tov Shapiro. A debate over the independence of scientific thought, in which the Idiopath disputes the Frankish titles in Palestine, ensues. Al-Kamil also cites numerous correspondences contesting these claims. ~ page 63 ~ People showing up for a diagnosis of a sample of their urine to the physician Constantine the African.* Constantine Act I, Signature v - (1) Latin Constantinus Africanus Born c. 1020, Carthage or Sicily Died 1087, monastery of Monte Cassino, near Cassino, Principality of Benevento Medieval medical scholar.

The Imperial Roots of Global Trade ∗
The Imperial Roots of Global Trade ∗ Gunes Gokmeny Wessel N. Vermeulenz Pierre-Louis Vézinax October 11, 2017 Abstract Today's countries emerged from hundreds of years of conquests, alliances and downfalls of empires. Empires facilitated trade within their controlled territories by building and securing trade and migration routes, and by imposing common norms, languages, religions, and legal systems, all of which led to the accumulation of trading capital. In this paper, we uncover how the rise and fall of empires over the last 5,000 years still influence world trade. We collect novel data on 5,000 years of imperial history of countries, construct a measure of accumulated trading capital between countries, and estimate its effect on trade patterns today. Our measure of trading capital has a positive and significant effect on trade that survives controlling for potential historical mechanisms such as sharing a language, a religion, genes, a legal system, and for the ease of natural trade and invasion routes. This suggests a persistent and previously unexplained effect of long-gone empires on trade.

The Transformation of the Roman Empire
THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE By: Nathan Monroe, Nick Soldan, Sucher Sumanta, Branden Sanchez, Colin Bailey In the year 1349 there occurred the greatest epidemic that ever happened. Death went from one end of the earth to the other, on that side and this side of the sea, and it was greater among the Saracens than among the Christians. In some lands everyone died so that no one was left. Ships were also found on the sea laden with wares; the crew had all died and no one guided the ship. The Bishop of Marseilles and priests and monks and more than half of all the people there died with them. In other kingdoms and cities so many people perished that it would be horrible to describe. The pope at Avignon stopped all sessions of court, locked himself in a room, allowed no one to approach him and had a fire burning before him all the time. [This last was probably intended as some sort of disinfectant.] And from what this epidemic came, all wise teachers and physicians could only say that it was God's will. And as the plague was now here, so was it in other places, and lasted more than a whole year. This epidemic also came to Strasbourg in the summer of the above mentioned year, and it is estimated that about sixteen thousand people died. “Internet History Sourcebooks Project.” Internet History Sourcebooks, 1349, sourcebooks.fordham.edu/jewish/1348-jewsblackdeath.asp.

Extremism, Ancient and Modern
Extremism, Ancient and Modern Near Eastern archaeology is generally represented as a succession of empires with little attention paid to the individuals, labelled as terrorists at the time, that brought them down. Their stories, when viewed against the backdrop of current violent extremism in the Middle East, can provide a unique long-term perspective. Extremism, Ancient and Modern brings long-forgotten pasts to bear on the narratives of radical groups today, recognizing the historical bases and specific cultural contexts for their highly charged ideologies. The author, with exper- tise in Middle Eastern archaeology and counter-terrorism work, provides a unique viewpoint on a relatively under-researched subject. This timely volume will interest a wide readership, from undergraduate and graduate students of archaeology, history and politics, to a general audience with an interest in the deep historical narratives of extremism and their impact on today’s political climate. Sandra Scham is Adjunct Associate Professor of Archaeology and Anthro- pology at the Catholic University of America and a countering violent extrem- ism specialist who works with USAID and the Department of State. She lived in the Middle East for over seven years, teaching and implementing Israeli– Arab exchange and peace-building projects. She is the Co-Editor of the Journal of Eastern Mediterranean Archaeology and Heritage Studies, served as Editor of Near East Archaeology, published by the American Schools of Oriental Research, and is a contributing editor to Archaeology magazine. She has taught courses on archaeology, politics and the heritage of the Middle East at the University of Maryland and Stanford University.

What Have the Romans Ever Done for Us? How to Win Wars and Also the Peace1
What Have the Romans ever Done for Us? How to Win Wars and also the Peace1 Jørgen Christian Meyer REG: All right, but apart from the sanitation, medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh water system and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us? ATTENDEE: Brought peace? REG: Oh, peace – shut up! (Life of Brian, 1979). The Roman Empire was one of the largest and most successful empires in world history. Not only did the Romans win the wars, but they also won the peace, pax Romana. Even after the collapse of the western part of the empire, the idea of Imperium Romanum continued to have a strong positive cultural, ideological and symbolic effect on European history. In that respect the Ro- mans differed from other successful empire-builders of the Iron Age such as the Assyrians, whom people under the influence of Judeo-Christian tradition remember for the fear their brutality inspired. The Romans, however, also used terror and brutality in building their em- pire. In 146 BC, Carthage and Corinth suffered. No empire can be maintained without the employment of retaliatory measures if necessary. In that respect the Romans did not differ from the Persians who, in 494 BC, destroyed the city of Miletos and deported its population, or the Athenians, who in 416 BC, showed no mercy when Melos declined to join their empire. All the men were killed; the women and children were enslaved. The Romans were distinguished by having at their disposal one of the most professional, well-equipped, well-organised and well-commanded military forces that the world has ever seen.

A Worthy Warrior Queen: Perceptions of Zenobia in Ancient Rome
A WORTHY WARRIOR QUEEN: PERCEPTIONS OF ZENOBIA IN ANCIENT ROME A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of The School of Continuing Studies and of The Graduate School for the Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts in Liberal Studies By Gayle Young, B.A. Georgetown University Washington, D.C. June 2, 2009 WORTHY WARRIOR QUEEN: PERCEPTIONS OF ZENOBIA IN ANCIENT ROME Gayle Young, B.A. Mentor: Dr. Charles McNelis, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Ancient Rome had a longstanding history of conflict with Eastern queens beginning, before its very foundation, with Dido and most famously exemplified by Cleopatra. Literature suggests powerful women from the East were particularly feared and loathed. Yet the Palmyrene ruler Zenobia, who claimed descent from Cleopatra and briefly conquered Egypt, was reportedly admired and, once vanquished by Aurelian, was allowed to retire comfortably to a villa in Tivoli. By examining surviving historical texts of the 3 rd century, and comparing them with surviving historical and literary texts from the Augustan age, this thesis will postulate why the Roman perception of Zenobia appears to have differed so radically. It will conclude that Aurelian, who was markedly sensitive to his public image, waged a propaganda campaign that emulated that of Augustus in some respects, but ultimately differed because he needed for Zenobia to be admired in order to justify his victory over a woman. ii CONTENTS ABSTRACT ……………………………………………………………………….….. ii LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS ……………………………………………….…….. iv INTRODUCTION …………………………………………………………………… 1 CHAPTER I.
