Discover the true center of the world and explore the history that shaped today's global order

The Silk Roads: A New History of the World is not just a chronicle of ancient times but a key to understanding the power and significance of eastern civilizations that are once again shaping the world. This book leads you along the traces of the mysterious Silk Roads that linked continental empires, shaped religions and cultures, and determined the direction of global trade.

For a long time the world looked westward, but attention is now shifting east - across eastern Europe through Central Asia to China and India - a region that fundamentally influences contemporary international relations and the economy. The Silk Roads were not merely trade routes but complex networks through which not only goods but also ideas, religions, and technologies flowed. The era in which empires rose and fell along these routes provides the foundation for understanding today's world.

This book offers a new perspective on world history that goes beyond the traditional Western viewpoint and opens readers' eyes to the historical and contemporary geopolitical changes. If you want to penetrate the mysteries of the civilizations that gave rise to many cultural and economic phenomena and better understand globalization from its true center, this publication is an essential addition to your library.
