Story
The emperor Nero's reign is one weird tale of sexual depravity and extravagant sadism. He was a gifted musician, and is said to have given great concerts of which attendance was compulsory; women were said to have given birth during the performance, and men were driven to fake death to escape. Nero kicked his pregnant wife to death and then had a young boy castrated to replace her as his spouse; then, during the great fire of Rome, he is said to have played the lyre to emphasize the beauty of the destruction. His eccentricities are a continuation of the tradition of his predecessors, only more perverted; Suetonius' account portray a strange man in strange times.

Story
José “Pepe” Mujica es un ex guerrillero que llegó a ser presidente de su país, Uruguay, haciéndose mundialmente conocido por sus propuestas políticas transformadoras y su estilo campechano. Integrante de Tupamaros en los ´60 y ´70, Mujica se fugó con sus compañeros en dos oportunidades de la cárcel. La dictadura militar volvió a capturarlo y lo mantuvo en prisión bajo duras condiciones. Ya en democracia se volvió uno de los exponentes más queridos del Frente Amplio, la coalición de centroizquierda que ganó las elecciones en 2004, cortando con una larga historia de alternancia conservadora en Uruguay.

Story
Den 3 november 2020 väljer amerikanerna landets 46:e president, världens mäktigaste ledare. Valsystemet är svårt att genomskåda - ibland har förloraren faktiskt fått flest röster, men inte flest elektorer. Det kan tyckas odemokratiskt, men systemet har utvecklats för att landets minst befolkade delstater också ska ha inflytande, och är lika gammalt som landets författning. I över 150 år har valet stått mellan kandidater från USA:s båda partier, demokraterna och republikanerna.

Story
Nel novembre del 2014, i tredici membri della famiglia Biden si trovarono a Nantucket per festeggiare il Ringraziamento, una tradizione che li riuniva da quarant'anni. Ma quell'anno era diverso dagli altri. Quindici mesi prima, infatti, al figlio maggiore di Joe e Jill Biden, Beau, era stato diagnosticato un tumore al cervello. Le possibilità di sopravvivere erano poche. "Papà, fammi una promessa", aveva detto un giorno Beau a suo padre. "Dammi la tua parola che starai bene, qualsiasi cosa succeda". Joe Biden gli aveva dato la sua parola.

Story
Napoléon Bonaparte : un des plus grands leaders n'ayant jamais existé. Un essor irrépressible le mena de l'école militaire au trône d'Empereur des Français, puis à la conquête de l'Europe, avant la défaite de 1815. Objet d'une légende dorée comme d'une légende noire, exemple d'une volonté de fer et stratège de génie, Napoléon a changé le cours de l'Histoire. On étudie ses campagnes dans toutes les écoles de stratégie, sa politique libérale a eu une influence mondiale, et il reste une des figures les plus controversées de l'Occident.

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.

Homme fort de l'URSS pendant plus d'un quart de siècle, Staline fut l'un des acteurs majeurs de l'histoire contemporaine. "Petit père des peuples" et fondateur des goulags, il est à la fois le grand vainqueur d'Hitler, le modernisateur de l'URSS et l'artisan d'une terreur généralisée dans son pays. Doté d'une réputation d'homme médiocre et peu cultivé, il déploie en réalité un talent exceptionnel pour parvenir au sommet du pouvoir et y rester.

Story
Rick Reilly hat Donald Trump über 30 Jahre beim Golfspiel beobachtet. Sein Buch über dessen Verhalten beim Sport ist ebenso witzig wie erhellend. Wie man Golf spielt entblößt, wer man ist. Der bekannte Sport-Journalist und Golf-Enthusiast Rick Reilly hat Donald Trump viele Jahre auf dem Golfplatz erlebt, und schildert in seinem Buch urkomisch die Raffinesse und Kaltschnäuzigkeit, mit der sich Trump beim Gentleman-Sport auf alle nur erdenklichen Weisen einen Vorteil zu verschaffen weiß. Wenn es etwas gibt, was in Trumps Welt auf keinen Fall passieren darf, dann eine Niederlage - und sei es beim Spiel mit Tiger Woods.

Story
Néstor Kirchner asumió como presidente de Argentina en 2003. Su alineación política, considerada dentro de Argentina como centro-izquierda estaba caracterizada por un fuerte sentido de justicia social y el empoderamiento del pueblo. Entre sus mandatos más reconocidos están la abolición de las leyes de obediencia debida y punto final, las cuales dejaban impunes a los involucrados en las desapariciones y otros crímenes cometidos en la dictadura militar de 1974 a 1983.
