Back in 1932, Australia went to war against the most unusual enemy. It wasn't another country or an invading army. It was a flock of 20,000 emus! They invaded and devastated farmers' wheat fields and the government had no other option but to take out the big guns, literally. What followed has since become one of the strangest military operations in the history: the Great Emu War.
So what actually happened during the Emu War, and how did one of the world's largest birds outsmart machine guns? And most importantly, who won?

Could YOU survive a royal marriage? Henry VIII had six wives, but becoming Queen of England is only the beginning of the challenge. To survive this, you have to navigate religious upheaval, political games, shifting alliances, and the unpredictable moods of one of history's most notorious monarchs.

Ninjas are one of the most famous warriors in history. But almost everything we think we know about them is wrong. The real shinobi of feudal Japan were not magical assassins in black outfits. They were spies, scouts, detectives, infiltrators, and samurai caught in the brutal wars that unified Japan.
How did a small group of samurai become one of the most iconic legends in history?

Cleopatra is often remembered as a seductive queen, but in reality, she was a highly skilled and ruthless political player, willing to eliminate anyone who stood in her way to secure the throne and shape the future of her kingdom... even her own family. 
This is the story of Cleopatra VII, the last queen of Ancient Egypt, and how she became the target of a final conflict, the one that would decide the fate of Egypt.
