Los Pueblos del Mar. Tuvieron enfrentamientos con los hititas y con los egipcios. No se sabía de donde procedían, y algunos vieron ahí su filón para relacionarlos con la Atlantida.

Tras conseguirlo rápidamente, continuaron hacia la costa del norte de Siria para asaltar y debilitar a los principales aliados hititas allí establecidos. Esta serie de destrucciones condujo finalmente a la caída completa del Imperio Hitita.

[…] Whenever Chinese tech giants became too big for their boots, they belatedly learned that no one in China is bigger than the Communist party. Just to emphasise that point, regulators brutally torpedoed the huge stock market listing of Ant Group. And when Didi Chuxing (the ride-hailing company that bought Uber China) had the temerity to proceed with a flotation in the US, its software was banned from app stores in China.
