The historical dictionaries present essential information on a broad range of subjects, including American and world history, art, business, cities, countries, cultures, customs, film, global conflicts, international relations, literature, music, philosophy, religion, sports, and theater. Written by experts, all contain highly informative introductory essays on the topic and detailed chronologies that, in some cases, cover vast historical time periods but still manage to heavily feature more recent events.
Brief AZ entries describe the main people, events, politics, social issues, institutions, and policies that make the topic unique, and entries are cross-referenced for ease of browsing. Extensive bibliographies are divided into several general subject areas, providing excellent resources for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more. Additionally, maps, photographs, and appendixes of supplemental information aid high school and college students doing term papers or introductory research projects. In short, the historical dictionaries are the perfect starting point for anyone looking to research in these fields.

The Republic of Mozambique is a modern state, at least considerably more modern now than it was in the early 1500s when the Portuguese arrived and began the centuries-long process of establishing full control. And it has made considerable progress since 1975, when, after a long and bloody struggle, it became independent. There is a national government, with varying roles played both now and in the recent past by political parties and armed movements such as Frelimo and RENAMO. The country has a modern economy, and much of the wealth comes from natural resources. Although the official language is Portuguese, it is only spoken by a minority of the population, whose real languages are those of the various ethnic groups. And despite the national flag, anthem, and constitution, people often feel more committed to their ethnic groups.
