Early humans lived as nomadic hunter-gatherers during the Paleolithic Era. They traveled in groups of 20-30 people and constantly moved to find new sources of food. The discovery of fire allowed early humans to cook food for the first time and migrate to colder areas. Nomadic groups built temporary dwellings near water sources and migrated when food supplies ran low in an area.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. prehistory
Hominids
(Key Finds)
The time before writing. Historians rely on the
work of archaeologist and anthropologist to
discover the past.
Early human ancestors
1. Mary and Louis Leaky
Found bones of hominids in East Africa in 1960
2. Donald Johansen
Found “Lucy”. Test showed she lived more than 3
million years ago and walked of two legs.
3. Tim White
Found even older remains from as long as 4.4 million
years ago.
3.
4. First
Appearance
Groups of hominids appeared about 3 million
years ago. (Johansen)
A group of hominids called Homo erectus, or
upright man, appeared in Africa about 1.5 million
years ago.
Many scientists think that modern humans
appeared about 200,000 years ago in Africa.
5. The way humans change their environment
Example:
Before – natural desert landscape with pockets of farming.
After – roads, houses, and retail stores are built.
9. Nomads
Societies
Hunter-
Gatherers
Discovery
of Fire
A person who has no settled home (dwelling).
Traveled in groups of 20-30.
Keep moving to new places to find food.
A community of people who share a common culture
Nomads hunted and gathered food for the group.
Men = hunters & Women = gatherers
Hunted animals & gathered wild plants
Discovered during the Old Stone Age.
How could this new technology changed the lives of
nomads during the Paleolithic Era?
Allowed Effects food to of be the cooked Discovery for the of 1st Fire
time.
Nomads could move to colder climates.
10. Nomad
Migration
Migrated from Africa approx. 1 million years
ago.
Built temporary dwellings of branches and
animals skins.
Built near a water source.
Why?
Once the nomadic group gathered all the food
in the area they moved on…
16. Revolution Essential Question
What is a revolution? Is it
positive or negative? Does
it always involve war or
violence?
17. Neolithic Greek for “new stone” (neo
= new & lithic = stone)
Known as the “New Stone
Age”
18. Mesopotamia
Fertile
Crescent
About 11,000 years ago
FARMING was discovered.
Discovered in Asia
Fertile Crescent (modern day
Middle East)
Started the Neolithic
Revolution.
19. Development
of Farming
EFFECT = early humans no
longer had to be nomads. They
could now settle in one place.
Still depended on STONE
TOOLS.
Used the seeds from BIGGEST
and best tasting plants to plant
crops, which led to…
20. Domestication To adapt wild plants for
human use; to tame wild
animals for human use.
Over time, this careful
selection of seeds and roots
from each crop led to the kinds
of food we eat today.
21. Domestication During the New Stone Age / Neolithic
Revolution, early humans learned to tame
wild animals and breed them for human
use.
1st domesticated animal = dog
Valuable in hunting
Sheep, goats, & pigs.
Meat, milk, & wool
Over time, herders developed animals
that were gentler than their wild
ancestors and provided more resources.
22.
23. Cave Paintings Hand painted/drawn images inside
caves on cave walls.
Images were added over & over to the
cave walls.
Over time, a cave could accumulate
hundreds of cave drawings/paintings.
Colors used:
Brown
Yellow
Tan
Dark Red
Coal Black
24.
25. Ice Age About 1.6 million years ago, many places
around the world began to experience long
periods of freezing weather, called the ice
ages
The ice ages ended about 10,000 years ago.
Huge sheets of ice covered much of the earth’s
land.
Many areas that are now underwater were
then dry land. A land bridge, or strip of land
connecting two continents, probably
connected Asia and North America.
26. New Stone Age Early humans learned how to cure
and store food for the long winter.
Used hand-made traps to catch
animals (food).
Development of primitive types of
boats.
EFFECT = catch bigger fish in deeper
water.
27.
28. New Stone Age Early humans learned how to cure
and store food for the long winter.
Used hand-made traps to catch
animals (food).
Development of primitive types of
boats.
EFFECT = catch bigger fish in deeper
water.
Made clothing & jewelry.
Invention of the 1st primitive bow &
arrow.
29. CIVILIZATION By 3,500 B.C. small farming
communities in the Middle
East were developing into
the world’s 1st cities, marking
the rise of CIVILIZATION.
30. Centralized
Infrastructure
Farming led to the development
of larger societies and eventually
civilization.
It is essential that you remember
the patterns of civilization:
1. Growth of Centralized Government
2. Organized Religion
3. Writing
4. Artistic Activity
5. Social Structure
6. Rise of Cities/Infrastructure
