My favorite era in history has always been the Roarin' 20's. I have always enjoyed the time period because of the changes in American culture and business, and the social developments that happened so quickly shaped the world we have today. I also am a big fan of Ancient Greece and Egypt for their impact in governmental policies and the education systems.........

.....My favorite era in history is World War II. It is a rather depressing period of time, with Hitler's rise to power in Nazi Germany and the Holocaust, but I find it the most interesting. There are many informal documentaries on the subject, as well as many academy award winning movies. My grandfather, a WWII veteran, has also influenced my interest of the time. He fought in the South Pacific, and brought back many stories of his experiences, as well as some "souvenirs", including a Japanese parachute and some hand carved wooden spears from the natives............

My favorite era in history is World War II. This time period has always sparked some interest in me. The Holocaust really impacted me because of all the harsh, cruel things Hitler did to the Jews and the Europeans. There were also many movies created on the Holocaust like The Boy in the Stripped Pajamas and Life is Beautiful. My dad's great uncle, Albert Anthony Yosco, was killed on the ship, The U.S.S Juneau. On this ship there were five brothers named Sullivan that were killed on the ship along with Albert. Due to this tragedy, this changed the rules of how many siblings are in active duty at the same time. This era in history is by far the most interesting to me.

The It’s a close tie between Late Antiquity (c.280s-650sAD) and the Late Middle Ages (1250–1500).

Late Antiquity contains the fall of the Western Roman Empire, which had an impact that would last over a 1000 years. Every great power that came after it, from the Holy Roman Empire, to the Byzantines, Ottomans and Russians would seek to emulate their cultural weight and significance by claiming its legacy.

Christianity, the world’s largest religion, explodes in this period, reaching into the European heartland from which it would conquer the world in later centuries. It also set the stage for Europe’s development into a continent of localised rulers and private landowners instead of one of empires, which in turn gave rise to some of it’s greatest strengths like parliamentary democracy, constitutional law and capitalism. Meanwhile, Islam is just around the corner and China becomes a vast Empire. It peaks my interest because it hasn’t received much scholarly attention until more recently so it’s ripe for exciting new analyses and theories.

The Late Middle Ages contain a pivotal moment in world history, the Age of Exploration. In this period the world becomes more and more connected, with people in England being aware of people in China, and even the America’s. Europe makes its greatest impact in this period, warts and all, making the global exchange of goods and ideas a reality with the infancy of Capitalism. The stage is set for the Protestant Reformation and subsequent Religious Wars which will turn Europe into a secular continent, revolutionising human thought. The Ottoman Empire rises and reaches its Golden Age, connecting the Maghreb with Egypt, Damascus and Constantinople. This connectivity under a single Empire, of a very different sort to the European brand facilitated by communication between independent nations, gives the Middle East and North Africa its more homogenous religious character and puts Islam on course to become the world’s 2nd largest faith (reaching South-East Asia) as well as maintaining its stricter orthodoxy which I personally think is significant in understanding it’s modern day conservatism (and confidence) when compared to Christianity. Russia becomes it’s own Empire too, which, between Europe and the Ottomans turns Eurasia into a set of powerful blocs for the first time, fundamentally changing the nature of foreign policy and cultural exchange.

But all historical eras, being a modern academic construction, feed into one another. So I find all of them fascinating because they help trace the development of humanity’s more complex achievements in political, religious and philosophical thought. Special mention should go to the20th century I feel. Between the World Wars, America’s ascendancy and subsequent global influence via Cold War politics it shaped not just the borders of today but the entire way in which we think about history, technological progress and ethics. It left Europe feeling traumatised and masochistic while giving rise to the various colourful (and of course, horrific) dictators of Africa and the Arab Nationalism of the Middle East. China became Communist under Mao’s reign of terror while the USSR collapsed, sounding the death knell for respectable Communist thought in the West and mankind launched a whole new age of exploration as technological progress grew exponentially, beyond the confines of the Earth itself.
