What makes a civilization successful, what allows it to survive for thousands of years, and what ultimately leads to its collapse?

In this book, you will find the history of nine great civilizations, from their founding to their decline. Some of them may be familiar to you. Others, though less well-known, are equally interesting and significant. You will meet the brave Vikings of Northern Europe, the mighty Aztecs of Mesoamerica, the enigmatic Minoans of Crete, the fearsome Persians of the Middle East, the colorful inhabitants of the Ayutthaya Kingdom in what is now Thailand, the stern warriors of the Japanese Kamakura Shogunate, and the imposing Mongols of the Eurasian steppes. You will also learn about the influential ancient kingdoms of North Africa—the Kingdom of Benin and the Mali Empire.

Peter Allen has created detailed and humorous illustrations that take readers on a fascinating journey through time.
