The action-packed title for Unit 7: Global Conflict 1914 to 1945 delivers on its ominous promise. But fear not, this overview video features our usual presenters, Colby and Kim. That means that for all the tragedy, tension, and terror of this period that saw two world wars, genocides, and a global economic depression, you at least have some friendly and familiar faces to guide you through it. History can be stressful! But practicing the skill of scale-switching will let you see this period in different ways as you determine for yourself what lessons are to be learned from these three long decades of conflict.
