Recommendation for world history documentary?
HCBW has never been into history but recently has said she wants to learn more. Any recommendations on a simple (not too boring) documentary or series?

The Civil War and The War (WW2) documentaries are the best I’ve ever seen

BBC’s “Civilization” series from the 60s/70s is the best.

Oliver Stone's "The Untold History of the United States" is pretty interesting.
