By Steppe, Desert, and Ocean is nothing less than the story of how humans first started building the globalized world we know today. Set on a huge continental stage, from Europe to China, it is a tale covering more than 10,000 years, from the origins of farming around 9000 BC to the expansion of the Mongols in the 13th century AD.

Story0
Throughout its existence, Russia has been a hybrid empire shaped by both Europe and Asia. Focusing on the formation of the Russian state between the sixteenth and the mid-nineteenth centuries, renowned historian Michael Khodarkovsky examines Russia's structural similarities with its neighbors in Asia―the Ottoman, Persian, Mughal, and Chinese empires. While most historians have noted the transformations that brought Russia closer to modern European societies, the Russian empire's shared characteristics with its non-European counterparts remain poorly understood.

Story39
The Scythians were nomadic horsemen who ranged wide across the grasslands of the Asian steppe from the Altai mountains in the east to the Great Hungarian Plain in the first millennium BC. Their steppe homeland bordered on a number of sedentary states to the south and there were, inevitably, numerous interactions between the nomads and their neighbours. The Scythians fought the Persians on a number of occasions, in one battle killing their king and on another occasion driving the invading army of Darius the Great from the steppe.

Story0
Per molto tempo gli storici si sono limitati a considerare Gengis Khan come un barbaro, un uomo violento che attraverso scorribande e razzie aveva conquistato il più grande impero mai visto sulla faccia della terra. Nella storiografia recente, invece, grazie a studi più approfonditi e alla caduta di molti pregiudizi ideologici, la vita di Gengis Khan si è rivelata molto più complessa ed intrigante di quanto sarebbe potuta sembrare fino a pochi anni fa. Nel 2000 infine la consacrazione: il Whashington Post infatti ha nominato l'imperatore mongolo “uomo del millennio”.

Story0
Grausamkeit und Toleranz sind Begriffe, die in heutiger Zeit nicht recht zusammenpassen. Jedenfalls rühmen sich unsere westlichen Regierungen gerne ihrer Menschlichkeit und Toleranz, während mehr oder weniger feindlich gesinnte Autokratien wegen ihrer Grausamkeit und Intoleranz verurteilt werden. Die Begriffspaare anders zu kombinieren, ist definitiv nicht üblich. Oder kennen Sie ein Regime, das etwa als menschlich und intolerant tituliert wird? Manche Aspekte der Hunnen erscheinen uns vielleicht auch deswegen so fremd.
