THE OLD WORLD & FIVE SEAS

by Walid Mahroum

Overview

In the pages of history, within the ancient lands of West Asia, lies the birthplace of civilization - the Old World. Spanning from the shores of the Mediterranean Sea to the vast expanses of the Yellow Sea, this region has witnessed the rise and fall of empires, the flow and retreat of dynasties, and the mingling of cultures and civilizations.

In "The Old World & Five Seas," we travel through time to explore the rich history of West Asia. At the heart of our exploration lies the complicated network of trade routes known as the Silk Road, which connected distant lands and facilitated the exchange of goods, ideas, and cultures.
