12 Events That Changed History: How the World as We Know it Came to Be
Many events can be said to have changed history, and not everyone might agree with all of those chosen for this collection, but – undeniably – these twelve would appear somewhere on anyone's list:
First Agricultural Revolution
Development of Religion
Invention of Writing
Fall of the Western Roman Empire
The Renaissance
Invention of the Printing Press
The Scientific Revolution
The Enlightenment
The American Revolution
The Industrial Revolution
World War I
World War II
There are, of course, many more – including the rise and fall of the Achaemenid Empire, the conquests of Alexander the Great, the Mughal Empire, the Protestant Reformation – but the following collection will only address aspects of the twelve above.
