Life goes on and people are having fun.

The UK records over 50,000 cases a day.

And 41 deaths.

The coronavirus is known to have claimed more than four million lives since it emerged in late 2019 but, for some nations in the Asia-Pacific, the worst is still ahead of them.

Vietnam's capital, Hanoi, was on Monday placed under partial lockdown, with millions more people in the nation's south ordered to stay home, a day after the nation recorded its highest daily caseload.

The UK is inviting catastrophe to happen again.

Tensions remain high as hopes dashed for breakthrough in China and India stalemate - The Guardian theguardian.com/world/2021/jul…

The clash did not result in all-out declarations of war, but pledges of de-escalation and multiple rounds of failed military talks have instead been overshadowed by a year of troop, artillery and infrastructure buildup.

While Indian army officers say they cannot match the high-tech Chinese infrastructure, they at times admitted to copying their way of living.

The chapters are:
1. Seize Power (Hitler),
2. Crush Your Rivals (Saddam),
3. Reign through Terror (Idi Amin),
