Although is has often been tempting to begin with prehistory and work forward, I find that that it is more useful to begin with recent events and work backward in time, gradually adding background, although it is more useful to present it from the beginning to the end.
In order to make a reasonable presentation of history, I find it necessary to add nations and gradually expand the coverate of historical periods to dover more of them. I am starting to add Egypt and Germany. The connections of nations to finer and finer division of history has progressed to where March 2013 is connected to the United States.
I am also probing deeper into social movements, particular religions, and government. Eventually hese various investigations willl come to a point, although it is not yet clear where or what is it.
