Hello history fans!

Do you think Anne is over looked in the history books? Was she ruled over by her favourite? Let me know your thoughts!

This video very briefly talks about the Stuart Eras ending, with Queen Anne handing over the throne to the Hanoverians or, the Georgians!

It’s a period I wasn't familiar with so I enjoyed this little bit of research into something new and I hope you did too!

Hello history fans!

I think we've always been nosey, we love a gossip and reality TV gives us that, but what did they have in the past?

This video very briefly talks about ancient gladiators, Tudor eavesdroppers and regency gossip columns that I think show reality TV has its roots in history...

What do you think of the theory? I hope you can see where I was coming from lol!

I was so excited when I came up with this idea so researching and realising it actually could have evidence to back it up was SO exciting. I think this is the first time I've shared original ideas with you properly, rather than just chatting about facts so I really hope you enjoy!

Hello history fans!

Happy 2024, I hope you had a lovely festive period and are feeling ready to take on the new year.🥳

This video very briefly talks about ancient new year celebrations, the very first recorded celebrations come from over 4000 years ago in Ancient Babylon and continue to this day!

What did you get up to? I hope it was similar to the Egyptians!🥂
