The map was drawn by HG Wells as part of a History of the whole world in 2 volumes
quote
At the end of the first World War, famed writer and futurist H. G. Wells embarked on a project to explain the entirety of human history in a single narrative flow. In 1920, the work was published as two bound volumes entitled The Outline of History. The History seems to have struck a chord with the reader of the day. With the horrors of the Great War still fresh in mind, and it’s consequences deeply effecting one’s daily life, perhaps an interpretive explanation of the arc that brought civilization to such a state was a comfort. Regardless of reasons, the book became quite popular and is in fact still in print

It's interesting to see these beautiful volumes online. I've got the 1920 versions which I used to flick through when my son was little because there are lovely illustrations and the narrative is non-technical. I don't see what is so controversial about the figure GR! reprinted. It just shows the relatedness of Europeans and the smaller branches which gave rise to the Ancient Greeks as we know from the Histories, and to the Teutons and Kelts (in my hardcopy extra figure). This extra figure in my version (which isn't in the online unfortunately), suggests the Hellenic tribes also migrated further towards the Hittites, Lydians and the Phoenicians, from about 1000BC.


This figure is quite interesting also (from the online version)

It places the Turks midway between the Huns and the Mongols. :D

BTW ... H. G. Wells doesn't mention GR!'s attempt at a derogatorisation of "Slavic". The Greeks are described as Nordic and part of the European (Aryan) subclasses.

So what exactly would you like us to extract from the front cover and contents page of a Greek magazine called “Strategy” that called the Imia incident a “Turkish military blunder”, when in reality Turkey managed to break the spirit of the Greek people; the repercussions of which are still felt today, with that simple maneuver? :roll:

break the spirit of the greek people dont think so chorio boy:

Για παραβίαση των Τουρκικών χωρικών υδάτων στην περιοχή των βραχονησίδων Ιμια απο Σκάφη της Ελληνικής Ακτοφυλακής και απο Ελληνικά Αλιευτικά ( KARDAK κατά τους Τούρκους) κάνει λόγο "Η ΦΩΝΗ ΤΗΣ ΤΟΥΡΚΙΑΣ".Αναφέρεται επίσης σε Ανακοίνωση του Γενικού Επιτελείου Ενόπλων Δυνάμεων της Τουρκίας σύμφωνα με την οποία δέκα ελληνικά αλιευτικά, υπό τη συνοδεία δύο ταχύπλοων σκαφών της Ελληνικής Ακτοφυλακής, παραβίασαν χωρικά ύδατα της Τουρκίας στην περιοχή των βραχονησίδων Ιμια (Kardak) μεταξύ 6:45 και 17:30.Το Γενικό Επιτελείο Ενόπλων Δυνάμεων συνεχίζει η ανακοίνωση ενημέρωσε το Υπουργείο Εξωτερικών για τις παραβιάσεις.

that was yesterday at imia,greek fisherman (its seasonal fishing now in January at imia(but i doubt you knew that)for tsipoures(you do now what the are right?)were doing what they do every year no ones spirit is broken if anything neo-cypriots like yourself who talk a good game behind a keyboard and are full of bravado maybe should pick up a gun and try to liberate there home land.I never assault cypriots at all and i recognize the Faults of greece in the cyprus issue however you are out of control.

“…they miscalculated the greek reaction…”

Because I’m just dying to hear about this “reaction” that doesn’t involve a pair of binoculars! :lol:
