Through the annals of political history, figures like Margaret Thatcher and Henry John Temple, 3rd Viscount Palmerston continue to shape our world. Palmerston, a British statesman in the 19th century, once said, "We have no eternal allies, and we have no perpetual enemies. Our interests are eternal and perpetual, and those interests it is our duty to follow." Fast forward to the French Third Republic, a period marked by the Paris Commune (1871) and the presidencies of the Republic (1871-1913). The colorful lithographs depicting this era offer a glimpse into the tumultuous times. Meanwhile, in the 20th century, Anthony Eden, a young British politician with a determined look, was preparing for his turn on the world stage. Across the English Channel, Harold Wilson, with his red budget briefcase, was leading the Labour Party in the UK. In the Middle East, Anwar Sadat, with a warm smile, was forging peace with Menachem Begin, despite their differences. The political landscape may change, but the pursuit of peace and progress remains a constant.
