Making Connections Across Time Periods

Find the Big Picture

History isn’t just a bunch of separate stories—it’s a web of connections. Linking events from different eras helps you see patterns and causes. Try relating current news to something you learned about ancient Rome or the Middle Ages for a deeper understanding.

Examples

  • Connecting the fall of the Roman Empire to later changes in European society.

  • Noticing similarities between different revolutions throughout history.
