Documentary
A documentary in which controversial historian Professor Niall Ferguson argues that in the last century there were not in fact two World Wars and a Cold War, but rather a single Hundred Years' War. A compelling argument is made to consider all of the conflicts of the 20th century in a broader context.
Seasons
Season 1
The first episode in the series shows that in 1900 the world was dominated by Empires that were both multinational and multiracial. But they would soon explode into an inferno: the First World War. Their war to the death ignited fires of racial animosity that were exploited by new and more terrible nation states which were far more preoccupied with national and racial purity. It was the beginning of the age of genocide.
