Historium
Did you ever fall asleep in history class? You’re not alone. History can be boring when focusing on only dates and statistics. Historium seeks to find the narrative of history in some of the most unlikely places.

#82 GRAVEYARD OF EMPIRES - Tournament of Shadows
•
Jake Barton
The British East India Company plots an invasion of Afghanistan. A bogus casus belli and puppet king are all they need—and the rivalry between their agent, Alexander Burnes, and a Russian spy named Ivan Vitkevitch becomes a zero sum game.
This is the beginning of the Great Game, or, as the Russians knew it: The Tournament of Shadows.
