Plus, a brand new Historical Timeline has been added along with over 70 brand new Maps.<br /> <br /> Categories of entries include countries, invasions and conquests, and individuals. In addition to covering the military aspects of invasions and conquests, entries cover some of the political, economic, and cultural aspects, for example, the effects of a conquest on the invading country&rsquo;s political and monetary system and in its language and religion.
