Many people view history merely as a set of dates and facts to be memorized, but history is much more than that.

Each season will focus on topics from different courses in history including seasons 1: HIST 111 Ancient World Civilizations, 2: HIST 112 Modern World Civilizations, 3 U.S. Hist to 1900, 4 U.S. Hist 1900 to the present, and 5 Civics/Economics.
