Most interesting period of history?

The causes and effects of WW I.

Interestingly, my interest in WW I started after reading a long essay here on these history forums written by a member as to the causes.
 
I tend to pick and choose a lot but favour European/North American history from the Napoleonic wars onwards.
 
I would say any period of hsitory from c.4000 B.C. to 1945 A.D. When modern history programs come on the T.V. and start talking about the 60's and the bleeping Beatles, I can never find the remote fast enough. The world had a lot more character up until the end of World War II: Spanish Inquisition, Black Death, Catapults, empires. What do we have now? Simon Cowel and Ubisoft... the world needs a good thrashing.
