When I was traveling Europe I stopped briefly in Bolognia. There some students from the University told me the fascinating story of one of the most stupid conflicts in the history: The War of the Wooden Bucket, or how 2,000 men died for a prank.

Persepolis, or Parsa in its original Persian name, is one of Iran’s jewels, a city once capital of the world’s largest empire, a place that brings visitors back in time, to the time when the ancient Persian kings were the lords of everything, richer and more powerful than any other man on the planet. Today the city is famous, ironically, for its destruction by Alexander the Great during his conquest of Persia.
