What country has the most fascinating history?
Discussion
Which country still has a history
Canada π
Native or recent one?
I was partly being stupid there but we do have a rich indigenous history here.
True
ancient civilizations in my mind have a more interesting history.
How?
Like Roman Empire, Byzantine Empire, Ottoman Empire, Babylonian Empire, and the ancient kingdoms of Mesopotamia. Pick any.
I guess if you condense the entire history of an empire into a book, itβs probably p interesting. But that will be much more difficult in the future considering how much more information there is now.
I guess Egypt ππ»
Ancient -> Mesopotamia
Modern -> Southern Rhodesia/ Rhodesia
Ancient Israel, if the stories in the Bible are true (and I believe they are).
Did you know that the name of Israel's God, Yahweh, is mentioned in inscriptions on three ancient Egyptian temples?
I will read about it today.
The part of the world that holds one of the most interesting histories is not just a religious matter. I mean, so many significant events have taken place in that specific area, from Jerusalem to Jordan Patra, and Egypt. Truly fascinating stuff.
Maybe Mesopotamia- Iraq turkey, followed by Egypt, China, Greece, Italy
The founding of US is also super interesting
China has made more contributions to this world than most people realize and it has a fascinating history.
True and in some ways they all interconnect in some way and one kingdoms history rests on others
Get ready to get Sumerian pilled.
Understanding this is a gateway to understanding the modern imperial system. It has roots all the way back and ties into astrological bodies (earth sun moon relationships).
Will eventually write an essay on this topic if there is interest

Wonderful question @iefan ππ«οΈ 
I should read about it more.
The YucatΓ‘n Peninsula and Guatemala. The history of the Olmec and Maya have to be explained away by modern historians because it challenges the existing western historical view.
I believe there are still some very interesting things about those civilizations that we haven't uncovered yet.
Without a doubt there were many civilizations before. To all of which there remains mysteries. All seemed to reach a peak of their civilization and technology and then had a sudden disappearance.
lydar flights over the jungles are revealing the massive number of man made structures that extend from the YucatΓ‘n, down through central America, and all over the Amazon, all the way to Peru.
It looks like at some point in the past, there was a diverse civilization of millions living all throughout the region.
The Mayan base 20 mathematics, with a representation for zero is also pretty crazy. Not quite as advanced as the Babylonian base 60, but close.
But the crazy thing is the calendar system with multiple interlocking circular time cycles which circle around each other and span the length of time it takes for our solar system to complete one rotation around the galaxy. Some advanced stuff.
Myanmar
Egypt πͺπ¬ Especially with Pythagoras who was a disciple of Sonchus of Sais, an Egyptian priest. Where he learned geometry and metempsychosis ππ€
Every country.
Most fascinating? That is subjective and thus hard bordering on impossible to estabilish.
Pretty much every country has a fascinating history.
Aside from the obvious like China, Italy, or England or Egypt, I'd be inclined to say Ireland, Iraq, India and Iceland.
Don't know all that much about latin america countries history and most African countries history aside from the northernmost countries. I am possibly missing out on incredibly fascinating stories from those areas.
Since subjective i am going to throw the Netherlands in there mostly trade wise its super intresting
Atlantis
The ones we donβt know about.
If you get down into details, all countries and societies have interesting stories to be honest. Of power and fall. Pride and shame.
Hard to pick a specific country. But, if I had to pick a continent, it would be Africa.
An interesting topic. It's difficult to choose just one; each country has its own history.
Outside of my biased opinion that it's Egypt, I'd say the one I've
found pretty fascinating lately isn't a specific country per se.
Rather,
it's the Central Asian Steppe region where several Turkic
empires/confederations rose and fell. Being right at the center of the
massive silk road trade network must've been so interesting.
