Stumble ThisWho has controlled and conquered the Middle East over the course of history? Egyptians, Turks, Kurds, Jews, Romans, Arabs, Persians, Europeans... the list goes on.

We could have gone off-grid and had an efficient, ergonomic planet, if folks like Edison, had been ditched for folks like Tesla, and assholes like Harriman,and A.Hammer, etc., had been offered to Molock, and Buckminster Fuller's, ideas implemented......follow the trail of $$$$$
It also misses out the formation of states like Saudi Arabia. The country now known as Saudi Arabia originally consisted of a number of essentially autonomous regions which were captured and forced to submit to the control of the Al-Sauds - politically, and the Wahhabs - theologically. The Saudi-Wahhabi 'unification' of Arabia was essentially imperialism. Also it doesn't include the expansion of Israeli settlements onto Palestinian land.
But I still think it's pretty interesting.
What an Orwellian assmunch.

Also, you can use the same method used her over the European map and say Vienna was always a part of an Empire. Starting with Celts, Romans, Western Rome, Frankish empire, Holy Roman Empire, Spanish-HRE empire, Austrian Empire, Austrian-Hungarian empire and Nazi German Empire.
What I'm saying is: This project doesn't mean anything. I actually happen to know one of the team member of this project, and he's far from being a professional.
This is just another example of what happens when people 'selectively pick out the 'convenient truth' and focus on these facts only.
