THE HISTOMAP is the first historical map I have found which presents 4000 years of history and the relationships between populations at a glance!

Below are just a few ideas, vocabulary and expressions to ask questions with:

-     Prepare questions using:  How long...?  Which... ? When... ? Where... ? Who... ? etc.
 

-     Comparisons.                      '  

-     more powerful than
-     the most powerful
-     as... as


-     New vocabulary, verbs, passive tense and collocations:

-     conquered (by)
-     reign lasted
-     were in power for
-     lasted
-     weak / strong
-     great
-     destroyed (by)
-     short-lived
-     long-lived
-     Western / Eastern world
-     Middle-East
-     developed
-     grew
-     maintained
-     people vs population

You can download THE HISTOMAP  below.  I found it freely downloadable in Internet ..

Hope you find some stimulating questions to ask with it!
Susan

    My name is Susan Brodar, born in London into a multilingual family and brought up bilingual English / Italian.

    I went to school in London until 15 when we moved to Germany where I finished my British education at Munich International School. I started teaching Italian at evening classes aged only 17 and studied Mass Communications and Journalism at Munich University.

    I continued teaching parallel to interpreting at trade fairs and business meetings as well doing translations. After working at the Italian Institute for Foreign Trade for a year I married my Italian globetrotting companion in 1983 and we set up our home near Venice, Italy where we continue to live with our two teenaged children.

    Having taken my British High School-leaving ‘A’ Level exams in English, Italian, French & German I am completely fluent in all four languages and am taking a DELE certification in Spanish to complement them.
