Study Notes

History of Humanity

Antiquity

Antiquity refers to the earliest recorded phase of human history, typically dating back to around 500 BCE. This era saw the emergence of the first civilizations in Mesopotamia, Egypt, India, China, and Greece. During this time, humans began to form organized societies and create structures of governance. Key events during this period include the Roman Empire's dominance in Europe, the dynastic reigns in China, and the spread of Buddhism and Christianity.

Middle Ages

The Middle Ages, also known as the Medieval Period, lasted from approximately 500 CE to 1500 CE. This era was characterized by feudalism, when lords granted land to vassals in exchange for military support. During the Middle Ages, Europe experienced cultural developments such as the rise of universities, the Renaissance, and the Black Death pandemic. In Asia, the Mongol Empire expanded significantly under Genghis Khan.

Modernity

Modernity, the third epoch of human history, spanned from around 1500 CE to 1900 CE. This era saw the dawn of the scientific revolution and the industrial age. Prominent figures of this time include Galileo Galilei, Isaac Newton, and Charles Darwin, whose theories helped shape the way society viewed the world. The Age of Discovery witnessed the colonial expansion of European countries, leading to increased global interconnectedness and trade networks.

Contemporary History

Contemporary history covers the period from the beginning of the 20th century until the present day. Marked by unprecedented advancements in technology and communication, this era has seen two world wars, the formation of the United Nations, and the advent of nuclear weapons. Significant movements such as feminism, environmentalism, and decolonization have also shaped society during this period. Recently, issues such as climate change, artificial intelligence, and global pandemics have emerged as pressing concerns.
