I have finished a pass through the 18th century, which has brought better connection of religion, especially Abrahamic religion, government, and a little bit of economics to the periods. Th hs led me to look into things as diverse as Leeuwenhoek's microscope (actually invented first used in the 17th century). the writings of Voltaire, the invention of the steam engine and the associated Industrial revolution, and the first hot-air balloon (in the early 1780s). Small but importact facts such as these will be important in describing history.
