From the publisher
The goal of this project is to document the history of humanity by documenting all of humanity’s attempts to defeat it’s greatest foe. Itself. This is not going to be a straightforward documentation of kings fighting and destroying each other, though there will be many mentions and examples of that. This will attempt to explain our subjects from the ground up. The common foot soldiers to the leaders at their head. Their strategies, tactics, weapons, and technologies. Their triumphs and tragedies. Their lives and their deaths. What they fought for and why. What motivated them. What drove them.
