Mankind: The Story of All of Us

Prepare for an adrenaline-infused tale about the rise of civilization across the globe. From the History Channel comes this major series which spans the first flourishing of civilization in Mesopotamia all the way to the discovery of America. Groundbreaking production and CGI bring to life the greatest landmarks and milestones of human achievement by rebuilding lost worlds and creating large-scale reenactments of critical battles. Interactive maps dynamically illustrate the key factors that contributed to the birth and evolution of human endeavors. Focusing on the simultaneity of human experience - how ancient Egypt thrived while Stonehenge was being built, how China was at its zenith while Europe was plunged into the Dark Ages - this landmark series captures all the action, struggle and heroism of our shared journey.
