An exciting new view of world history as seen through step-by-step maps

Dive back in time to discover the unbelievable stories of the past through more than 200 vibrant maps. From how huge wars were won and lost to the routes of inspirational travellers in unfamiliar lands, see history unfold one map at a time.

Watch the rise and fall of great empires and kingdoms, see how physical geography influenced the course of history, and learn how lucrative trade routes of spices and silk have all changed the way our world looks today.

Hundreds of specially commissioned maps guide you through key moments in history, or show how things changed over time. Historical photographs help bring this history to life, while clear, bite-sized text allows you to easily follow the story of humankind.

History as it Happened breaks down history into simple, manageable chunks.
