Regions
Images from around the world - history, icons, stereotypes and classic shots are all here. The subjects are divided mainly into individual countries and grouped in their continental regions. The compilations include historical footage of people and places, significant events, major cities and features, national pastimes, famous people and symbols of society and culture.
Excellent South African coverage back to the Boer War and the Apartheid era; decolonialisation, civil conflicts and modern issues such as AIDS and debt.
A wide range of Canadian material and some South American images as well; the US is not listed as a separate collection because we just have too much material.
Modern scenes of China and Asia, plus countries from the Pacific rim like Australia and New Zealand.
Features early Parisian scenes, the Spanish Civil War, fall of the Berlin Wall and the World Wars.
A heavily documented area going back to the 1920s with many unusual scenes of ordinary life, and the background of unrest and conflict.
