Cyber Cafe Essay This year in cyber cafe I took an AP World History on Khan Academy I took this because I was interested in Greek history and this the closest option to that I completed 4 out of the 6 units 600 BCE 600 BCE 600 CE 600 1450 and 1450 1750 The last two units were very short though I learned how the world came to be through dynasties empires and wars This doesn t apply to my future career but it was interesting to learn about I discovered how societies succeeded and prospered There were many different subjects to learn about and this essay would be way to long if I explained all so I will just talk about some of my favorites To start and the main reason I took this course was the classic Greece lesson I learned about the Greek god family tree in depth which was the most interesting and this is because people of Greece practice polygamy Also the classic wars between cities like Athens Sparta and Thebes Ancient Greece was comprised of hundreds of essentially independent city states Communities were separated by mountains hills and water Ancient Greece was more like a network of communities with a shared religion and language that sometimes led to a sense of common belonging Despite these cultural commonalities affiliations between city states were loose and short lived The Delian and Peloponnesian Leagues for example were dominated by one strong city state Even as Greeks colonized the Mediterranean and Black seas new colonies while recognizing a mother city state were largely independent Many classic plays in America also take place in Greece Next I enjoyed learning about the spread of Islam
