Sim History

It might make more sense to the kids if they could role play some of the important events in the history as part of their learning experience. Here is a website presented by Distance Simulation Group, a Division of Historical Learning Foundation (HOLF).

They have two simulations for now: (1) Civial War OnLine - a military, economic, and political simulation of the American Civil War with both wargaming and roleplaying aspects. It is played by using the Shot and Shell, Captialist Patriots and Greed and General Quarters programs; (2) Napoleonic Wars OnLine - a multiplayer simulation of combat and diplomacy during the Wars of the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars.
