History has always been a strong interest of mine and whilst I was at school I took it upon myself to expand my interests by taking both a history and ancient history timetable whenever available to me. The subject appealed to me because I was always so involved with understanding why wars and conflicts occurred, and how countries interacted with each other as a result of particular events. Whilst studying history I found the politics side of Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia to be incredibly interesting as the subject went into depth on how both Hitler and Stalin took control of their people and governments to obtain absolute power within their countries as well as international recognition for their actions. The Greek wars were taught to me through my ancient history classes and I was deeply involved with the rivalry between Athens and Sparta which followed the Persian invasion of Greece due to the changing nature of military conflict. I have always been fascinated with the changing world by which we live and current affairs and during my early teenage years I subscribed to TIME magazine as I found it to be extremely interesting as it reported on up-to-date political events, specifically on areas pertaining to war and conflict, and I would spend a lot of my time following up on events included within the magazine to discover more information on the topic. 我要提问
