Modern
No Time for Sorrow
Mara was a medical caretaker — a title she'd worn proudly once. Be that as it may, presently, she felt more like a scrounger. Supplies were waning, and she expected to return food and medication once again to the facility. She lacked the opportunity and energy to contemplate the companions she'd lost, or the patients she wasn't ready to save. There was no time for anguish. Consistently spent grieving was a second squandered, and in circumstances such as these, seconds could mean endurance.

THE LEGACY OF MOORISH SPAIN
The Queen of Castille sits regally on a somewhat bewildered-looking white steed, crown perched prominently on her head. Her eyes are drawn to the ochre-coloured castle gleaming brightly in late November sunlight on a distant hill. Her husband, the King of Aragon, leans forward on his horse with his hand out ready to accept the hefty keys reluctantly proffered by the last Nasrid ruler of the final bastion of Moorish rule in Al Andalus, Boabdil. Though spared the humiliation of kissing the monarch’s hand, the Moor's eyes seem to be silently pleading, “Remember what you promised.”

Steps Through Time: The Secrets of Pharaoh Djoser’s Tomb in Saqqara
The ancient Egyptian civilization remains one of the most mysterious and fascinating periods in history. With its monumental structures, intricate beliefs about life and the afterlife, and astounding advances in art, architecture, and science, this civilization still captivates our imaginations. Among the most impressive relics of ancient Egypt is the 4,800-year-old staircase leading to the southern tomb of Pharaoh Djoser in Saqqara, Egypt. These steps, which descend into the earth, do not merely represent a pathway; they are a window into a lost world of architectural genius, religious rituals, and beliefs that helped shape one of history's most influential cultures.

Disposed Royal Houses That Still Exist.
Throughout the 19th and 20th Century, the Old World, and parts of the New World, were once largely ruled by monarchs. Be it absolute or constitutional, these kings, queens, emperors, and empresses were regarded with admiration by their subjects. However at the end of First World War, and the subsequent Second, the vast majority of monarchies were largely done away with. From being disposed by government action or voted out of power by the people, these ancient ruling families saw their reigns come to an end.
