Breaking the History Nutshell
by Owl Of Arnhem
Me, and semi big brain AP student talking about history that isn't taught as much as the rest of history, and how that history relates to past and future events throughout time, going from topics about the Opium Wars to the Finnish Continuation War, hopefully being as informative and entertaining as possible. The topics I discuss here are really the "in a nutshell" AP version and are not a comprehensive explanation of these crucial events and wars and have thousands of resources for further study. Also I earned a 5 on AP World Exam, so I probably know what I'm talking about...probably.
