Rather than go linear, Man goes wide with a view of dispersed cultures interacting at one time&#8211;in this case in the year 1000. He shows what&#8217;s happening during this &#8220;year&#8221; in each region of the planet (say, Tibet, Oceania, South America) and how events then resonate across the globe. The first millennium was the first era when most of the world was settled, and the first time immigration and travel created a robust communication network. Globalism, it turns out, was a medieval event.
