    Sooo many.

    • Mughal India. Literally each year could be a series theres so much happening.

    • Timurids. Post mongol central Asian. Life of Timur in particular.

    • The life of Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir and other French existentialists could be fun.

    • Borges. Blind Argentinian librarian and author. My favourite short story writer ever.

    • Ustad Mansur. A painter. Look at my posts on traditional art with his paintings and theres more context there.

    • Khusrau. A poet in several Indian courts in the 1200s. THE Sufi poet.

    • William Blake. Just the story of seeing an angel in the tree etc is fascinating.

    • Kushan empire in the 30-375 CE.

    • Burmese independence movement was fascinating.

    • There was a murder in Norwich in the 12th century which was a fascinating story. A boy was found hung in the woods. More and more children disappeared. Jews being blamed.

    Theres honestly soooo soooo many that I will never stop. Every story can make for good art with the right mind.
