I'm looking for books on European history that don't preach to me about how it's bad to only care about the history of Europe.
>>
>>9682588
The Penguin History of Europe (pic related included)
After the Ice by Mithen
anything on Greece by Kagan
SPQR by Mary Beard
vanished kingdoms by Norman Davies
History of the English Speaking Peoples by Churchill
Richard Evans history of the third reich
Sword and the Shield: The Mitrokhin Archive and the Secret History of the KGB is a great soviet secret history.

Of course you would be better seeking out primary sources.

The Q'uran
The Qu'ran
The Qur'an
The Qura'n

I've been looking for some works on the average life of people in the dark ages. Can someone recommend me something like that?

If you are just wanting a very broad overview you could read Will Durant's Story of Civilization.
11 volumes of Western Civ ending with Napoleon.
He was going to keep going but he died.

How poetic

To be honest it was actually unironically literally poetic.

He and his wife worked on the series for most of their lives up to their advanced age.
He had to go to the hospital to recover from something and his wife stopped eating without him and died. His kids tried to keep it a secret from him b/c they knew he couldn't take it but he found out about it on the evening news and died the next day.

We probably don't really know since there are no written documents hence the name dark ages

I'd like to live life without hearing how i'm an evil white man and all the other shit that flows out the mouths of "minorities". On a global scale people of European blood are the actual minority and it should be recognised so as we are living in a globalised world.
