    Ever had Problems when trying to find some good sites about a special period in history on Google?
    Then try looking if the site you need is in Links to History.

    Thanks to Marduk Of Babylon, Last Roman and RexNecros for new links.

    It seem that I can't keep my orginal promise to add 2 new links each day. (I was pretty naive)
    So instead I will add now and then, when I find something intersting.

    *Divided Romans into Culture and Military

    *Added a link to HoI2 Wiki Knowledge site under WW2.

    I found www.bbc.co.uk/history is an excellent introductory history site, with lots of topics covered. It's all well presented with a broad range of audio-visial and interactive content (time-lines, maps, ...). It also contains a growing archive with many stories relating to WW2.
