Story
Joan of Arc is one of the most astounding heroins in French history. Her achievements leave anyone who knows her story shaking his head in amazed wonder. A small peasant girl born in Domrémy, she said she was visited by the Archangel Michael, Saint Margaret and Saint Catherine, who instructed her to support the King Charles VII to recover France from English domination. It was the end of the Hundred Years' war, and the French army was miserable, almost defeated, and hopeless; but the young maiden obeyed the voice that spoke to her and took arms, eventually leading a galvanized army to astounding victories. She was later caught by a coalition allied with the English; the ensuing story of her trial and eventual execution at the stake is one of the most distressing episodes of history, with lies and manipulation forcing a political agenda against all evidence.

Story
The Cid, an Arab nickname meaning "the Lord", has been called the "most famous Spaniard of all time". Rodrigo Diaz de Vivar was a Castillan military and political leader in medieval Spain. He was an outstanding general, first leading the Spanish against the Moors in victorious battles, then working as a mercenary-general for whoever would require a war won. He eventually captured the city of Valencia, keeping it to himself and ruling it until his death. His remarkable military ability made him the legendary national hero of Spain. He remains an idolized figure in Spain, and his name has been immortalized in every form of story.

Story
The emperor Caligula was one of the strangest and cruelest rulers that ever lived, and most of what is known about his reign comes from Suetonius. The first six months of his reign appear to have been moderate and successful; but after that, he fell into a spiral of sadism, sexual perversity, and plain insanity that made him one of the most hated tyrants of all time.

Story
Fils du chef de la puissante tribu des Arvernes, Vercingétorix apparaît aux yeux des historiens comme la figure la plus marquante de l'époque gallo-romaine. Son rôle dans l'histoire antique est essentiel puisqu'il est le premier à fédérer la plupart des peuples de Gaule dans la lutte contre l'ennemi romain. Sa jeunesse est pourtant partagée entre l'opposition à Rome et la compromission étant donné qu'il compte longtemps au nombre des proches de Jules César.

Story
Ein einzigartiger Blick auf eine Zentralfigur der neueren deutschen Geschichte. Wer von Attentätern hört, der denkt an Terroristen, die aus einer fanatischen Ideologie heraus Angst und Schrecken verbreiten wollen. Nichts davon trifft auf Claus Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg zu. Stauffenberg und sein gescheiterter Versuch, den nationalsozialistischen Wahnsinn zu stoppen, sind zu einem Mythos geworden. Allerdings basiert der inzwischen abenteuerliche Gegenentwurf auf schwachen Fakten. Der wirkliche Mensch Stauffenberg in seiner Vielfalt tritt hinter all diesen Zuschreibungen zurück.

Han var en pionjär inom nytänkande och originell militär taktik och krigets utseende förändrades för alltid när han plöjde söderut från Skandinavien mitt under den blodiga konflikt vi kallar trettioåriga kriget.

Story
Jeanne d'Arc - en ung kvinna vars tro fick henne att utmana kungar och inspirera arméer. En hängiven tro på att Gud hade utsett henne att leda fransmännen till seger mot engelsmännen tog henne från födelsestaden och ut på slagfältet. Under sitt korta liv blev hon en nationell ikon, en symbol. Det var en bild som hon odlade och uppmuntrade och som slutgiltigt skulle leda till hennes död. Jeanne d'Arc var tonårsmartyren som ledde den franska armén och inpräntade gudsfruktan i engelsmännen, men vem var hon egentligen? Och vad ledde fram till hennes ikoniska status?
