The appeal of such chronicles has something to do with the way they schematize history in the service of a master plot, identifying laws or tendencies that explain the course of human events. More recently, the field has belonged to Yuval Noah Harari, whose “ Sapiens” (2011) describes the ascent of humankind over other species, and offers Silicon Valley-friendly speculations about a post-human future. In time, Jared Diamond swept in with “ Guns, Germs, and Steel” (1997), delivering an agriculture- and animal-powered explanation for the phases of human development. that their individual lives, their nations and races, interbreed and blend and go on to merge again at last in one common human destiny.” Then came Arnold Toynbee, whose twelve-volume “ Study of History” (1934-61), abridged into a best-selling two, proposed that human civilizations rose and fell in predictable stages. Wells’s “ The Outline of History” (1920), written “to be read as much by Hindus or Moslems or Buddhists as by Americans and Western Europeans,” argued “that men form one universal brotherhood . . . Europe and Africa with Asia, and Asia with Africa and Europe.” For the past hundred years or so, each generation of English-language readers has been treated to a fresh blockbuster trying to synthesize world history. “In earliest times,” the Hellenistic historian Polybius mused, in the second century B.C., “history was a series of unrelated episodes, but from now on history becomes an organic whole. "Bogu" was eventually used as the name for Gaia Unicron's Arms Micron partner.Everything has a history, and writers have for thousands of years tried to pull together a universal history of everything. He was first announced under the name "Bogu" (ボグ) which is derived from the katakana spelling of "hawk" (ホーク hōku), with consonant-changing diacritics added to change "ho" to "bo" and "ku" to "gu", as well as dropping the vowel-extender.This may seem weird, but take note that Japanese has no native kana for "f" sounds, instead フ ( hu/ fu) with another vowel is used, with the vowel overriding the already near-silent "u". "Baru" is derived from "falcon" (ファルコン farukon), condensed to two syllables and changing "fa" (ファ fu-a) to "ba" (バ ba).As before, he combines with fellow pack-ins Shadow Gabu and Shadow Dai, but this time into the "Super Combo Weapon" Dark Energon Saber.
