The Epic Pursuit of Qin Shi Huang's Lost Tomb
In the records of history, scarcely any secrets captivate the creative mind particularly like the excursion for the lost burial office of Qin Shi Huang, the significant sovereign of China. A figure of enormous power and need, Qin Shi Huang joined China and made a very serious scratching on its plan of experiences. In any case, paying little mind to what his fundamental impact, the whereabouts of his last resting place have evaded searchers for a really long time, waged holy war in dream, legend, and such lead that a huge number people will perceive as normal.

The Influence of Apartheid-Era Architecture on Modern Urban Design
The legacy of apartheid, South Africa's system of institutionalized racial segregation and discrimination that lasted from 1948 to the early 1990s, continues to shape the country's urban landscape and architectural identity. Apartheid-era architecture, characterized by its stark divisions, spatial inequalities, and symbolic expressions of power and exclusion, has left indelible marks on South Africa's cities, influencing everything from infrastructure and housing to social dynamics and urban planning. In this article, we explore the profound impact of apartheid-era architecture on modern urban design and the ongoing efforts to reimagine and reshape South Africa's built environment.

Ease of Making War
“No national debt shall be contracted in connection with the external affairs of the state." There is no cause for suspicion if help for the national economy is sought inside or outside the state (e.g. for improvements to roads, new settlements, storage of foodstuffs for years of famine, etc.). But a credit system, if used by the powers as an instrument of aggression against one another, shows the power of money in its most dangerous form. For while the debts thereby incurred are always secure against present demands (because not all the creditors will demand payment at the same time), these debts go on growing indefinitely.

Athenian political figure
As Pericles surveyed the political scene early in his career, he noticed the following phenomenon: Every Athenian political figure believed he was rational, had realistic goals, and plans on how to get there. They all worked hard for their political factions and tried to increase their power. They led Athenian armies into battle and often came out ahead. They strove to expand the empire and bring in more money. And when their political maneuvering suddenly backfired, or the wars turned out badly, they had excellent reasons for why this had happened. They could always blame the opposition or, if need be, the gods.

Vlad Dracula's real story.
Many of us have seen vampire films, perhaps the most famous of which is Dracula's story, and most of us believe that Dracula's character is imaginary of ancient legends, but you will be surprised to learn that Dracula is a true story of a large bloodthirsty tyrant, but with injustice and tyranny and not like vampires. History tells of a tyrant named Vlad Dracula, a ruler who fought against Muslims and committed many crimes against Muslims in the Arab Mashreq.

Curse of Amir Timur
Old tomb opened, curse unleased. It's a tale as old as time. I'm sure you've seen it in at least one movie. (I'm looking at you, Brendan Fraser, in the classic 1999 film The Mummy.) While the notion of a curse let loose from a desiccated corpse sounds like it might be exclusive to fiction, let me assure you—it's not. There have been a few documented cases of pretty strange events that line up with curses on tombs. Let's look at one such curse with origins in the Eurasian Steppe that some say affected the outcome of World War II.
