I'm always open for every period but my favourites are medieval (early to late from every country), Louis 16th (Classic including the French Revolution), Victorian Era and WW1.
I happen to have a detailed knowledge of Vlad Dracula 3rd aside the myth with the vampires and am researching or rather collecting facts of The Phantom of the Opera. I know it's a legend but it has few rings of truth or else it would not be a legend.
In the future I will do more research of Scotland's and Ireland's history due to one of my stories.
Cheers! ^.^

I love French history! I recently did both a presentation and an essay on Louis XIV... I wanted to do my presentation on Marie Antoinette but somebody had already claimed her!
The Phantom of the Opera is also amazing! Love it!

@SarahBaggins, ^.^
Cool! Maybe I should have done too something like that as an essay.
But due to longing for Ireland after having taken vacation there I did something with calligraphy & ornaments how they were constructed in Book of Kells (ca. 800 AD).

@fionadaydreamer, did you visit the Book of Kells?? I went to Dublin last year and we went in Trinity College but couldn't get in the library because there was a huge queue and it was our last day there :(

@SarahBaggins, Yep. It was breathtaking from its shape to the ancient colours that still appear so fresh. The Long Room was magnificent. Smelling of old books, leather and wood. :-) I was in Ireland for a language course in 2014. A dream come true and can't wait to get back there!
