Indus Valley

Despite not hearing of the Indus Valley in any of your history books it was still quite a happening place.  It first had a united civilization at the beginning of the Bronze Age. This civilization was not really that powerful but they still were quite influential and made some historic cave paintings.  Still their civilization collapsed at the beginning of the iron age.  This ushered in a new leader called the Iron Age Verdic period.  this was not a combined civilization but more of a common culture that was shared by many city-states.  This culture traveled farther than it did before and the warfare was grand.  Later this area was ruled over by other people such as the Persians and also Alexander the Great.  Finally there was the Mauyra Empire that took back the Indus Valley.  This did not last long with the Mughal Empire coming back from the middle east attacked the Indians and they eventually took over for a long time before the Indians finally returned.

Asian Conquests

 Asia before the modern times may have seen  boring and stupid.  There were still a couple of mammoth warlords that have had a very large impact on the history of the area.  One of these main men were Genghis Kahn.  Genghis lived in a normal tribe were he was the son of a war-lord emperor.  By diplomacy and wars he was able to unite the tribes of Mongolia and after doing this he had hundreds of very skilled horseman at his disposal.  Using these warriors he attacked tribe after tribe until he controlled all of Asia.  He died at the height of his empire and was the Alexander the Great of the Far East.  Another great man was Attila the Hun.   Attila was a great warrior who lead one of the largest barbarian bands in history.  Preying on the Roman empire he achieved great treasures until the Western Roman Empire struck revenge.  They untied all of the victims of Attila and they attacked him in a battle that left Attila looking weak and cowardly.  The last major ruler was Kublai Khan, Kublai was the ruler of the Yuan Dynasty and ruled over present day China and Mongolia.  During his rule he tried to invade Japan and greeted Marco Polo.  All of these exciting things happened in Asia so it really actually was a happening place.

Ancient South America

Ancient South America was made up of three main civilizations, the Maya, the Inca, and the Aztecs.  All of these empires were basically the same with a few small differences.  They all lived in the tropical areas except for the Incas who lived in the Andes Mountains and had to deal with a harsher climate.  Another difference was that the Maya who was a very loose society that just had common believes and ideas.  These were the only large differences with everything else about the society being basically the same.  They all had very similar religion that was based on many gods that reacted to different sacrifices.  These sacrifices were a main part of the Aztec Civilization with any droughts or floods being cause of the gods and the solution to the problem was more sacrifices.  There was also many other similarities such as the calendar, warriors, and lifestyles all of the cultures were advanced and great in the South American Lands.

Tower of Babel

The Tower of Babel was an immense biblical tower built after the the great flood.  It was built in the town of Babilu, the Akkadian word for Babylon.  The Town was controlled by the great king Nimrod at the time.  The tower was not built to tribute god but instead it was made for the greatness of man and built by them.  In actual history the tower was really made by the great king Nimrod who increased the army greatly.  The tower was probably instead a great Ziggaurat built by Nimrod  to give to his war gods in thanks of his great victories.  The tower then began Babylon's rise as an empire.  By building such a great Ziggurat people came to worship at the temple.  Soon the place was a central area of trade and the empire grew to a large and great empire.  And all of it started because of the Tower of Babel.

Ica Age

The Ice Age was a name that was used for four different events that covered the north part of the world in a sheet of ice.  This changed the entire culture of any small stone age tribe that lived in the area.  Most of the tribes were wiped out completely because food and animals were hard to find, still others moved to the south to a  more warmer climate.  Still some tribes were able to quickly adapt and survive in the colder area.  The reasons for these changes are still unknown but some people have some guesses.  One Idea is that the earth may have changed its position in its atmospheric path.  Another idea is that the continents moved very far before the Ice Age and this made the climate change.  The Next idea would be the variation of the sun's energy output, this would change heat on earth and make it easier for ice to form.  The final idea was that of Volcanism and that the earth's core cooled down making the earth an easier place for ice to form, all of this made the ice age possible.

Israel Empire

 The united Kingdom started when 12 families decided to bond together as a united people because of outer threats.  At first they used judges for different terms but then they wanted a long term king so Samuel anointed Saul.  Saul was a very smart king but began to become corrupted and he was no longer liked.  This was when god led Samuel to David who was a little farm boy but soon became known as the King of Israel.  With the technology of the Iron Age he was able to lead a great army in battle and extended his empire defeating the hated Philistines and sending them back to their own empire.  He defeated an uprising from his nephew and then also made great stories in the bible.  Finally he left the Israelites in great shape even though their empire ended soon thereafter.
