This is the global history thread. We have a thread on everything else, so I decided to make one on this. Discuss anything about World History here.

Ooh, mythology!
Humans originally were supposed to have 4 arms, 4 legs, and 2 heads, but Zeus was scared of them, so he ripped each one in half, so humans forever search for the human that was their other half.
So you see, 'love' draws us to our other half.

Our other heads look WAY different than our normal heads.
I wonder why.

Nope.
It's one of Plato's writings about mythology and love.

Oh interesting. I knew no modern human/extremely advanced robotic AI could make something as weird as that up!
On the hunt for a Plato website!

I am currently intrigued by the history of the Egyptian pharaoh, Ramses II, Egypt's greatest king.

Ooh! What bit? Also, Pharaoh.
Unless Ramses II came after the Roman colonialisation, which I don't think he did-going from my experience with Ozymandias. I think Ramses the sometime after that was father to our famous Boy Pharoh Tut, so yes technically it's Pharaoh.
I told you I like mythology more.

Well Ramses II lived WAY before Roman colonization, he lived to be nineties, which is an impressive age for the 13th century B.C. He even outlived his wife and most of his sons.
