In this book twenty‑eight different writers and scholars from around the world contribute, giving engaging, often passionate accounts of their own nation's history. The countries featured in Histories of Nations have been selected to represent every continent and type of state: large and small; mature democracies and religious autocracies; states that have existed for thousands of years and those born as recently as the twentieth century. This volume also aims to explore popular understandings of history around the world, and asks professional historians and other established writers to step outside their usual frames of reference and write about how history in understood in the culture of their homelands at large.
