On Day 23 entered the Part 3 of the book onto the 10th chapter.
The last segment of 9th chapter was about Iran, the clerical republic. Interesting info of the rise of Sunni and Shia sects from the original military and priestly division. The history neatly sets once that context is laid. Strange trajectory and continuation including Shah, Turkey and Oil Barons.
Next chapter is the great transformation of the 20th century starting with June 28, 1914 and ending on Sept 11, 2001.
