Your Chronological Crash Course
All Of Human History, In Order, In Just One Day
World History 24 aims to give you the sweeping outlines of world history in a concise package. It’s not made for historians (although we hope they listen and enjoy!) but rather for anyone who finds history overwhelming and isn’t sure where to start. If you have always wished you could remember who Attila the Hun was or why Istanbul became Constantanople, this is for you!
