    How to see the geopolitical world clearly with history 

    This introductory guide to world history and geopolitics will help you to think independently and to live in tune with a changing world.

    We are living in times of historic changes - changes not seen for 100 years. There are many theories of geopolitics that try to explain these changes. There are many "narratives" about these changes clamouring for your attention in the media every day. This course will bust some of those "narratives", and help you think independently about the dramatic changes in power and ways of live around the world today.

    Jeff Rich has distilled a lifetime of studying history and three decades of advising governments into the seven essential lessons that will make you into an independent thinker on geopolitics and history.

    Your Guide
    Hi I am Jeff Rich. I am a writer, historian and former government official, who for over 30 years used insights from history to make sense of the world today. Now I share those insights with you at the Burning Archive Substack, YouTube Channel and Podcast.

    But the best way to get access to me and what I have learned about the world is through these online courses, and the discussions I have with my students.
