About the Book

Wave of Violence was offset by the new founded Religion Islam in Arab. It's followers in seventh century fought fierce, bloody Wars with the fellow Arabs, in Arab, Europe and Asia. Whoever refused to convert to their fanatic religion was challenged in the Battle ground, defeated and coerced to convert to Islam. Then came another wave of violence from Europe-Constantinople, Italy, France, Britain, and Germany etc. In 1095, Holy Pope gave a call in France to wage a crusade against the marauding Moslems, who, time and again had razed down the Holy Sepulcher and the adjacent Cathedral Church in Jerusalem. The Holy Sepulcher being the tomb of Jesus Christ is the holiest pilgrim center of Christendom. Besides, the nomadic Arabic Barbarians killed and tormented the christen Pilgrims routinely. The latest casus belli was provided by Seljuk Turk who again had razed down the Holy Sepulcher. Then the European princes led the Army of regulars, as well as militia, hordes of thieves, murderers and felons to fall on the intractable Arabs. For over two centuries a number of successive crusades urged upon by Pope Bonifice, his successor Pope Silvester II and Peter-the Hermit went on causing fresh surges of bloody violence. In fifteenth century, a host of seafarers like Vasco de Gama and Columbus set out from Europe in Search of New World and discovered many new lands on Face of the globe including America, Canada. These conquistadors vanquished over the local tribal inhabitants, christening them universally as 'Indians'. The conquistadors also enslaved these 'Indians' including male, Female and Children to work for them in mines, agricultural farms, on boats, and even as the Domestic hands. In many Latin American and African lands the aboriginal tribal Women were prohibited by the white conquerors from marrying. They were used as their concubines, instead. The slaves were subjected to inhuman treatment, as usual in case of protesting they were either maimed or put to Death through stabbing, putting a shot through or quartering. During sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, the British enjoyed a Monopoly over the slave trade throughout the world, cutting edge over their French, Spanish, Dutch and Portuguese competitors. These conquistadors also indulged in unfair trade practices with their colonies, which paid for the luxury of the European Aristocracy. They plundered the Natural resources of the New World, like timber, agricultural produces, ores, minerals, coal, cotton, ivory, Animals hides and other raw material for their domestic industry, and they sold their Industrial products at a vastly exorbitant prices to the natives in the colonies. Spanish King, British Monarch and Portuguese were exultant at striking Gold and Silver in vast quantities in a number of Latin American and African mines. But the Second World War gave the exploited, wretched Nations a fresh lease of life with the global aggressors and exploiters-Britain, France, Portugal, Spain, Netherlands, Denmark, Germany, Japan, Italy and Russia-fighting amongst them only to come to ruins. Then at prodding of the United States of America and the United Nations Organization, these global aggressors made to let go of their colonies, put an end to their practice of slavery, and restore the universal human rights. In 1945, on board of a battleship, the US President Theodore Roosevelt impressed upon the British Prime Minister Winston Churchill the need to free all the Colonies and respect the human rights, at the time they signed the famed Atlantic Treaty. As result, Britain abdicated so many colonies, the list includes, India, Pakistan, Burma, Sri Lanka (Ceylon), West Indies (1957), Ghana, the Gold Cost, Singapore, and Cyprus. Then Britain also freed Uganda, Jamaica> Trinidad and Tobago, Tanganyika (1962), Kenya (1963), Malta(1964), The Gambia and Maldives (1965), Botswana, Lesotho, and Guyana (1966), Mauritius and Swaziland (1968). Yet the current History is witnessing an unruly Scenario in the small nations after their independence which are being misruled, having a record of violating human rights, generic massacres, assassinations, coup de e'tates, riots and all the rests. Their citizens still live in a volatile atmosphere. These nation states have also failed in providing Education and prosperity to their denizens. The result is increasing Rate of crime, Drug smuggling, and arm-trafficking by their people. Thus these sizzle cauldrons of humanity are causing problems at the global level.
