Dear Readers !

In the coming week I will write a longish thread on an interesting topic and will try to keep it simple with lots of photographs .

I will narrate you my version of
LE GRAND JEU !

Have you ever though ?
Despite the lion is not an animal native to England, it’s seen as a national animal of England.
Why this strange beast from a far off land represent England?
Is this some Game ?
Just symbolism ?
Or that they are the real heir to 'Kingdom of Judah'

Apart from the African Lion , Greyhound, Yale, Dragon, Horse, Lion of Mortimer, the Unicorn, Griffin, Bull and Falcon are associated with ' The Family ', but indeed what's charming then a Lion ?

A dragon or Unicorn perhaps !
But won't it be too pagan ?

Anyways !
Let's move on to the "Great Game"

The game is a common word for hunting too !

The game between RESOURCES and CIVILIZATION .

How will be the routes between a Treasure and Destination ?

CHALLENGING !

Welcome to the world of conflict !
@peterfrankopan

Along the #SuezCanel , the control kept on changing based on various factors, primarily being the lack of resources !

But towards the east stable power houses were there !

So in simple terms three major local players were
1. Arab World
2. Persian Kindgom
3. OTTOMAN Empire
