Let me take you on a journey-no pun intended! Imagine this: It is the early 2000s, and my family and I are on a road trip. We have a physical map sprawled across the dashboard, and my dad is squinting to make sense of it while my mom plays the role of a “navigator” with mixed success. Chaos, mayhem-but that ...
Globalization-a current term hovering all over the news exactly what does that mean? Precise simplification: It is an endless process combining countries, cultures, and economies on the international level. To think this way, man has started moving from different types of separate islands to coming closer like a big locality or neighborhood. These changes have changed the way we live, ...
The Arab-Israeli conflict has acquired a place for itself as one of the longest-surviving and most ingrained conflicts to have survived through the history of the contemporary world. It is a tale of pain and hope, negotiation and loss, all chronicled within the scope of a struggle between these two entities, whose tension has persevered much against all for so ...
Apartheid-a term still sending ripples down the corridor of history. It was never just a policy; it was a way of existence for millions in South Africa for almost five decades. Bravery among those who fought against it, sorrows of families torn apart, and rejoicing because of its demise grew up with me. But what was apartheid, and how did ...
The word ‘farming’ takes our mind to the image of widely open expanses of land, tractors tilting the ground, and farmers harvesting crops under the extremely hot sun. Agriculture has long been the backbone of human civilization. With such exponential rates of the increase in population globally, conventional practices are by now already sweating. That is where biotechnology is likely ...
The car industry has provided the building blocks for modern civilization: shaping how every one of us lives, works, and travels. During the last couple of years, however, something quite radical has taken place-from traditional gas guzzlers, a shift in electric vehicles has been made. The electric car has, up until recently, been a mere fantasy of science fiction. It ...

Now, let us see, step by step, how this wondrous therapy works, why it’s important, and what it means to families. What ...
Imagine this: sipping on your morning coffee, scrolling away with no single care in the world as the bus you’re riding inches forward, meandering through the chaos of busy streets toward work with no driver in sight. Stuff right out of some science fiction thriller? Well, welcome to driverless public transportation in the promise of an emerging future. So, let’s ...
The fall of the Berlin Wall was not only a physical event, but to many, it meant freedom, unity, and how the world could no longer be divided into parts. For decades, the grimness surrounded the Wall of Berlin, which reminded one of the Cold War stress that separated family and friends, separating the whole nation. On 9th November 1989, ...
Arguably, the war in Vietnam has been one of the most talked-about wars in history due to the lives taken but more due to the lessons it taught. Starting on November 1st, 1955 to April 30th, 1975, there were almost two decades of nonstop war. It has remained, until this date, one of the most provocative debates, questions, and even ...
