Sorry, we don't allow "throughout history" or "in your era" questions. These tend to produce threads which are collections of trivia, not the in-depth discussions about a particular topic we're looking for. If you have a specific question about a region/culture and time period, please feel free to re-compose your question and submit it again.

For questions of these types, we ask that you redirect them to more appropriate subreddits, such as /r/history or /r/askhistory.
