To the south and southwest, the Thuringian Forest effectively separates the ancient region of , now the northern part of Bavaria, from the rolling plains of most of Thuringia. The central range extends southwards along the western side into the northwest corner of the Thuringian Forest region, making Thuringia a lowland basin of rolling plains nearly surrounded by ancient somewhat-difficult mountains. To the west across the mountains and south is the drainage basin of the Rhine River. The most conspicuous geographical feature of Thuringia is the Thuringian Forest, a mountain chain in the southwest. The River, a tributary of the River, separates this mountain chain from the volcanic Rhön Mountains, which are partially in Thuringia, Bavaria, and .

Excerpt: Chiinu – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia According to one version, the name comes from the archaic Romanian word chila (meaning “spring”, “source of water”) and nou (“new”), because it was built around a small spring. Nowadays, the spring is located at the corner of Pushkin and Albioara streets. An alternative version, by Stefan Ciobanu, Romanian historian and academician, holds it, that the name was formed the same way as the name of Chiineu (alternative spelling: Chiinu) in Western Romania, near the border with Hungary. Its Hungarian name is Kisjen , from which the Romanian name originates. Kisjen in turn comes from kis “small” + the “Jen” tribe, one of the seven Hungarian tribes that entered the Carpathian Basin in 896 and gave the name of 21 settlements. Chiinu is also known in Russian as (Kishinyov). It is written Kiinöv in the Latin Gagauz alphabet. It was also written as " in the Moldovan Cyrillic alphabet in Soviet times. Historically, the English language name for the city, “Kishinev”, was based on the modified Russian one because it entered the English language via Russian at the time Chiinu was part of the Russian Empire (e.g. Kishinev pogrom). Therefore, it remains a common English name in some historical contexts. Otherwise, however, the Romanian-based “Chiinu” has been steadily gaining wider currency, especially in the written language. Rose Valley, Sectorul Botanica Chiinu gardensChiinu is located on the river Bîc, a tributary of the Dniester, at , with an area of 120 km². The whole municipality claims 635 km².

Excerpt: Zoe Palaiologina (Greek: ), later changed her name to Sophia Palaiologina (Russian: ), (between 1440 and 1449 or c. 1455 7 April 1503), Grand Duchess of Moscow, was a niece of the last Byzantine emperor Constantine XI and second wife of Ivan III of Russia. Her father was Thomas Palaeologus, the Despot of Morea. Together with her brothers, she was taken to Rome after the conquest of Morea by Mehmed II of the Ottoman Empire in 1460. In Rome, her Greek name Zoe was changed to Sophia. Born as an Orthodox, it is possible that she was raised as a Catholic in Rome. In 1469, Pope Paul II offered to marry her to the Russian monarch in order to unite the Orthodox and Catholic churches. She entered Russia with a grand entourage and was welcomed in the city of Pskov, were she was officially celebrated it was noticed, that she thanked the public herself for the celebrations. The widowed Russian prince married Sophia at the Dormition Cathedral, Moscow on 12 November 1472. The cardinal Johannes Bessarion, sent by the Pope to Moscow, however, did not succeed in his mission. Over the years, Sophia started to have great influence in her husband’s decision making. she was described as a “shrewd” character, and it was rumoured that her husband let himself be directed by her suggestions. In 1472, she was affected by the formal tributary gesture by which her spouse greeted the Mongolian representatives, and is believed to have convinced him to abandon the tributary relationship to the Mongols, which was completed in 1480. It is thought that she was the first to introduce the Kremlin to grand Byzantine ceremonies and meticulous court etiquette, the idea of Moscow as a Third Rome evidently pleased her. Sophia was apparently not obliged to follow the custom of tradit… More:

Wiesbaden, together with the cities of Frankfurt am Main and Mainz , is part of the Frankfurt Rhine Main Region , a metropolitan area with a combined population of about 5.8 million people.Wiesbaden is one of the oldest spa towns in Europe. Its name literally means “meadow baths”. At one time, Wiesbaden boasted 27 hot springs . Fifteen of the springs are still flowing today.

A Dragon’s Head and a Serpent’s Tail: Ming China and the First Great East Asian War, 1592-1598


$34.95


A fresh perspective on the late Ming and early modern East AsiaThe invasion of Korea by Japanese troops in May of 1592 was no ordinary military expedition: it was one of the decisive events in Asian history and the most tragic for the Korean peninsula until the mid-twentieth century. Japanese overlord Toyotomi Hideyoshi envisioned conquering Korea, Ming China, and eventually all of Asia; but Korea’s appeal to China’s Emperor Wanli for assistance triggered a six-year war involving hundreds of thousands of soldiers and encompassing the whole region. For Japan, the war was “a dragon’s head followed by a serpent’s tail”: an impressive beginning with no real ending.Kenneth M. Swope has undertaken the first full-length scholarly study in English of this important conflict. Drawing on Korean, Japanese, and especially Chinese sources, he corrects the Japan-centered perspective of previous accounts and depicts Wanli not as the self-indulgent ruler of received interpretations but rather one actively engaged in military affairs—and concerned especially with rescuing China’s client state of Korea. He puts the Ming in a more vigorous light, detailing Chinese siege warfare, the development and deployment of innovative military technologies, and the naval battles that marked the climax of the war. He also explains the war’s repercussions outside the military sphere—particularly the dynamics of intraregional diplomacy within the shadow of the Chinese tributary system.What Swope calls the First Great East Asian War marked both the emergence of Japan’s desire to extend its sphere of influence to the Chinese mainland and a military revival of China’s commitment to defending its interests in Northeast Asia. Swope’s account offers new insight not only into the history of warfare in Asia but also into a conflict that reverberates in international relations to this day.
