It is the story of a group of highly competitive and mutually suspicious dynasties, but also of a continent uniquely prone to interference from 'semi-detached' elements, such as Russia, the Ottoman Empire, Britain and (just as centrally to Simms's argument) the United States.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Griffin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43726987001900,"sku":"9780141037172","price":16.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0379\/1365\/7388\/files\/9780141037172_87593127-d1c4-42a0-bfb4-6a6c371bd195.jpg?v=1759680392","url":"https:\/\/www.griffinbooksonline.co.uk\/products\/9780141037172","provider":"Griffin Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
