In Edward Lorentin’s book The Limits of Empires: How Powers Divided Eurasia is a fascinating exploration of centuries-long struggles over Eurasia’s borderlands, which for centuries have served as the arena for the ambitions of great empires. The author invites us to look behind the scenes of diplomatic games, large-scale battles and cultural impact that forever changed the landscape of the region.
What made the great powers fight for the same land over and over again? How has the skillful manipulation of rulers and politicians fueled conflicts by hiding the true ambitions of empires? And finally, why has Eurasia become a symbol of the endless territorial disputes that began centuries ago but still affect geopolitics today?
This book reveals little-known facts, sheds light on the unique strategies of military and cultural conquest, and examines how these events have influenced the modern world.
