I'm doing both Ancient and Modern atm. They're both pretty heavy in content but I find Modern heavier. For me Ancient History is easier to absorb.
Ancient is strongly linked to archaeology,how sources are obtained, the understanding of cultures and civilisations. Whereas, in Modern it's more on the issues. Imo I think Modern History would be more valuable but that's just on my pure opinion.
These are the topics we've covered or are covering:
Ancient history: Troy and Schliemann, Tutankhamen and Ancient Egypt and The Celtic People
Modern history: The French Revolution, The Russian revolution, The Cuban Revolution, World at he beginning of the 20th century, (individual research) The US Freedom Riders
