Historia
Did you know that a poet named William Drennan was the first to name Ireland the “Emerald Island”? He was referring to the green hills of Ireland’s countryside in his poem “When Erin first rose”. The countryside is what defines Ireland probably the best since, for a long time, it played a major role in the economy and culture of the nation.

If you want to discover the captivating history of England, then pay attention...There are few places that entice the imagination quite like England. Just a little island off the western coast of continental Europe, it boasts a rich history that stretches all the way back to the first modern humans. From the fearsome Celtic warriors of prehistory to the clever inventors and statesmen of the modern era, England’s story is one bursting with magnificent castles, complex kings and queens, rebellious peasants, and horrifying plagues.

Historia
When Queen Victoria stepped onto the throne of Great Britain and Ireland in 1837, gone were the days when the monarch had supreme authority over the kingdom. Victoria ruled at the head of a government with which she was meant to converse, debate, and ultimately guide, and it was a job she sometimes struggled to perform. Victoria described herself as an emotional creature and blamed her gender for what she believed were her shortcomings as a monarch.

An undoubtedly interesting, exciting, and dramatic chapter of Russian history was when it was ruled over by the Romanov dynasty. This powerful ruling family came to power shortly after the frightening rule of a legendary figure in Russian history: Ivan the Terrible. After murdering his own son and unborn grandson, Ivan died without an heir, resulting in the formation of a new dynasty. This was the Romanov family.

Europe’s past is characterized by fighting and warfare, and it is punctuated with great works of art, philosophy, science, and technology. Even its recent history is much the same - that’s why, so much of the globe was once ruled by European monarchies. Despite all the infighting and territorial exploits, Europeans have managed to create some of the most beautiful pieces of literature, architecture, political structures, and ideas the world has ever seen.

Five Tudor monarchs sat on the throne of England and Ireland from 1485 to 1603. The family earned their royal rights through strategic planning and battlefield prowess, and kept them because of intellect, strength, and sheer determination. The Tudors, one of England’s most powerful and famous royal dynasties, knitted together a fragmented and small island nation that became one of the world’s financial, colonial, and technological superpowers.

The Habsburg family ruled central Europe since the early medieval times to World War I, but they still exist as one of the most prestigious Austrian families. To keep themselves in such high positions, the Habsburgs had to develop unique strategies to fight their political enemies. They wanted to rule the world and saw themselves as the only dynasty worthy of such divine right. To keep the family pure, they often married within their family, which resulted in a very weak genetic pool and many mental and physical problems.

Really great!
This book explains the complicated machinations of multiple rulers trying to take over England that ended with the Norman Conquest. After Richard (the Lion-Heart) died, England was unhappy with the rule of his younger brother, John. Finally, the Archbishop of Canterbury interceded to formalize a contract between the king and his people. The result was the Magna Carta...... Really great!

Awesome!
Essentially a potted history of the Western world from 1837 to 1901 with early emphasis on the personal life of Queen Victoria of England. The table of contents includes sanitation/bacteriology, Egypt/the Suez Canal, cults/spiritism, poverty and even Jack the ripper, plus a lot more. Although the narrative centers on England and the British Empire, much of the Western world was affected by events begun there.

The rest of this book mentions the important points of English life: Black Death, the Tudor Dynasty, Henry VIII, Elizabeth I. While Elizabeth tried her hand at British colonies in the New World, she hedged her bets by giving a charter to English trade to establish the East India Company. Eventually, this would lead to unparalleled wealth in England.

well done sir!
This book explains the Neolithic Revolution in England; the change from hunters and gatherers to more settled agricultural pursuits. As Britons created urban centers and burial chambers for important dead citizens, they became more autonomous and wealthy (they were rich in resources). That brought jealous Europeans, hoping to steal their goods. This book helps me a lot.
