Global Stories

The Empire is wounded. Its war machine is starving. Its ranks are being bled dry. After the Battle of Yavin, Emperor Palpatine orders an expedition into the Unknown Regions to search for raw materials in order to make up for the loss of the Death Star. When the planet Earth is discovered, the capture of its valuable resources becomes a top priority. The only problem? Earth's people won't go down without a fight. *Star Wars was created by George Lucas and is owned by Disney (not me lol)* *Currently Attempting to Publish on Royal Road under Account JP Short*

What if the story of the world has never been told as one story? Every nation has a beginning. Every civilization has left its mark. Every generation has inherited the consequences of the choices made before it. From the rise of ancient kingdoms to the birth of modern superpowers, from wars that reshaped continents to discoveries that transformed humanity, the history of the world is a single story told through many nations. The Story of Our World takes readers on a remarkable journey across every country on Earth, exploring three timeless questions: How did it begin? Where does it stand today? Where could it be heading if present trends continue? Drawing on history, global events, and careful analysis, this book examines the triumphs, failures, struggles, and achievements that have shaped nations over centuries. It does not seek to glorify one country or condemn another. Instead, it invites readers to understand the forces that have influenced our world and the lessons history continues to offer. The journey concludes with The Solution-a thoughtful exploration of ideas that could help build a more peaceful, just, and prosperous future for humanity. Whether you are a student, teacher, journalist, policymaker, leader, or simply someone who wants to understand the world beyond headlines, this book offers an opportunity to see history through a broader lens. Because to understand where humanity is going, we must first understand how we got here.

At Nowhereland University, the worst mix-ups lead to the best trouble. ​Megan is a grounded second-year student who prefers keeping her circle small and a cool, indifferent distance from anyone she doesn't know-especially a clueless freshman who accidentally invaded her space, Yoonchae, a first-year student-and the sole victim of a massive housing mixup. ​What starts as an awkward silence filled with subtle upperclassman attitude slowly turns into an unspoken, constant heat between them. Out in the open hallways, they're just two reluctant roommates playing it safe. But behind closed doors, the quiet tension doesn't push them away-it draws them closer to the line they shouldn't cross.

Awakening in a lavish, unfamiliar chamber, the girl discovers their body feels foreign, their reflection unrecognizable, and silence heavy with secrets. Escaping through disguise and desperation, they stumble into a city alive with danger, where strange people, carriages, and magic blur the line between survival and fate. As she wanders, curiosity leads her astray. In a shadowed alley, she discovers a stone abandoned by unknown hands. Drawn to its quiet pull, she keeps it, unaware of the power it conceals. Each step forward becomes a lesson, each encounter a revelation, as the stone begins to unravel its hidden truths - and with them, the fate she never asked for but cannot escape. As she leaned deeper into the stone's strange power, whispers of its magic began to spread - rumors that drew strangers together, uncertain whether they were foes or allies. Each discovery pulled her further into a world far stranger than she had ever imagined, where danger and wonder walked side by side. She must navigate the unknown, even as the boundary between truth and illusion grows perilously thin. *This marks my very first attempt at writing an isekai with a system of my own creation. Before this, I only tried reincarnation through a fanfiction of a cartoon - but now, I'm stepping into something new, something that belongs entirely to me. I know there may be mistakes along the way, but I hope you'll read with patience and share in the journey with me. I want this story to stand apart from others - not bound by the usual roles of protagonist, antagonist, or side character. She is simply someone who wants to have fun and survive her own way in unexpected ways, existing outside the rules of the tale. 🔥This contains elements of fear and some violence.

Not every person you meet is a criminal. This is my story, and I want to voice my opinions on why I believe calling people immigrants is wrong. Throughout history, many people moved from their homeland to ensure their safety. To build a new life, to gain a helping hand. Not every person has the same intention. I grew up in Leicester and London, and I learnt a lot. There is so much friction between what people have been taught to believe, and what is real. I hate the word immigrant. People are more than just their skin colour, every person has something within their soul to bring into the world. I have also seen Morocco and Spain, two very beautiful countries. I hope you find this book of use to you. Maybe, it will change your perspective. :)

A dumb, fighting-game-inspired random story that conjures up from my mind. It is not meant to be a 10/10 story. (c) 1987

As Chloe struggles to understand her new reality, unknown forces begin to stir in the shadows, and an ancient power awakens, bringing with it secrets that could change everything. Yet, in the midst of this looming storm, she turns the key to a small café on the corner-its warm lights spilling into the night. Meanwhile, her friends begin uncovering mysteries of their own, each discovery pulling them deeper into a world far stranger than they imagined also dealing with other strange things. Together, they must navigate the unknown, even as the lines between truth, myth, and destiny begin to blur. ∙∙·▫▫ᵒᴼᵒ▫ₒₒ▫ᵒᴼ ℙ.𝕊. ᴼᵒ▫ₒₒ▫ᵒᴼᵒ▫▫·∙∙ ᵀʰⁱˢ ˢᵗᵒʳʸ ⁱˢ ⁱⁿˢᵖⁱʳᵉᵈ ᵇʸ ᴬᶻᵗᵉᶜ ᶜᵘˡᵗᵘʳᵉ, ᵃⁿᵈ ⁱᵗ ᵐᵃʳᵏˢ ᵐʸ ᵛᵉʳʸ ᶠⁱʳˢᵗ ᵃᵗᵗᵉᵐᵖᵗ ᵃᵗ ʷʳⁱᵗⁱⁿᵍ ᶠᵃⁿᶠⁱᶜᵗⁱᵒⁿ. ᴵ ᵏⁿᵒʷ ᵗʰᵉʳᵉ ᵐᵃʸ ᵇᵉ ᵃ ᶠᵉʷ ᵐⁱˢᵗᵃᵏᵉˢ ᵃˡᵒⁿᵍ ᵗʰᵉ ʷᵃʸ, ᵇᵘᵗ ᴵ ʰᵒᵖᵉ ʸᵒᵘ'ˡˡ ʳᵉᵃᵈ ʷⁱᵗʰ ᵖᵃᵗⁱᵉⁿᶜᵉ ᵃⁿᵈ ᵉⁿʲᵒʸ ᵗʰᵉ ʲᵒᵘʳⁿᵉʸ ʷⁱᵗʰ ᵐᵉ.

(Micheal didn't listen to Andrew and winded down the window to call out to someone on the side walk). Michael: Hee! Hee! (Micheal said and winded up the window). (The boy started running after the car excitedly but he stopped because he couldn't reach Michael's window). (Andrew looked over at Michael for a brief moment). Andrew: Please don't tell me you just called out to a fan through the window. Michael: It was just one fan Andrew, relax. Andrew: But you know how they are. They will tell one person after another until a whole crowd of people attack you. You should have brought your bodyguards today. Michael: Please don't remind me Andrew. I am tired of having bodyguards around me 24/7, can't l spend one day just walking around like a normal person? Plus they need their day off. (Andrew rolled his eyes). Andrew: Whatever you say Michael. You always don't listen to me anyway, so what's the point? Vote, comment and share. Enjoy❤! Rip to the King of Pop.

The idea behind this 99 Poem Challenge group project is to build a folder of poems that are all completely different in style . The challenge is also to complete within a year and to be inspired and inspire others to try new styles. Within each poem itself there is a basic description of its type or style and any specific rules involved. Special thanks to @cristinaaragon for the cover design.

La historia comienza con Clark recordando sus días en la granja en Smallville con su padre. Recuerda cuando era joven cómo él y Jonathan Kent caminaban por los acres de campos sembrando semillas, y las instrucciones que su padre le daría sobre cómo hacerlo. Su padre le dijo que, en algunos aspectos, las personas son como semillas. Algunos florecen de inmediato, mientras que otros necesitan un poco de cuidado adicional.
