This course covers the last five centuries of world history from a Biblical perspective. Students will learn about different types of governments, and about the effects of enocomics and trade. Influential worldly religions, philosophies, and economic systems are explained, such as Islam, Hinduism, deism, communism, democracy, socialism, fascism, imperialism, and capitalism.
The historical events selected for coverage are those that have had the greatest impact on history. Though wars and military actions are covered, they are not overemphasized. Some cultural trends and present-day problems are explained in the light of God's Word.
The text also shows God's overruling hand in the history of the Jews and Christians. Persecution and the development of religious toleration and religious freedom are discussed. Challenges for present-day Christians are given.
The text is divided into 28 chapters with study exercises, chapter reviews, and some map work. Many pictures, maps, and illustrations—some in color and some in black and white—are scattered throughout the book.
The teacher's manual contains a reduced copy of each pupil's page, as well as copies of the tests with the answers filled in. Surrounding the pupil's pages are the answer key, main points, Christian perspectives, and other helpful information. Suggested sources for further research are listed in the introduction for the teacher.
A separate test booklet contains tests to follow every two chapters, and a final test (15 tests total).
