After reading from the textbook, I feel it gave me a new perspective on the history of our world. One thing that I found very helpful was the timeline/calendar of Earth and which events were occurring at that time as well as gave a description of what was going on around that time. For an example, the author mentions that if we were to put the creation of the United States on a timeline, it would be the last day of December. The reason I find this so interesting is because when you think about the history of the United States, there is so much that has happened but compared to this history of the world, it isn't much at all.
After thousands of years of inhabiting Earth, I believe humans have come a far way. From the paleolithic era to this post modern era, humans have become much more advanced. One question that comes to my mind is "why would early creations of humans such as homo habilis travel a vast area into something that they are not comfortable in?" The reason why I ask this question is because if your main goal is to survive as a whole, why would these creatures leave their home, their comfortable area into an unknown region. However, their curiosity created an evolution of which survival of the fittest occurred and stronger bodies survived causing body parts to constantly shape into our current style.
