The focus on purely military history has diminished, suggesting a shift towards more comprehensive analyses that incorporate social, cultural, and political dimensions of historical events. - Studies on Early Modern Period:
Research specifically centered on the early modern period appears to be less frequent, possibly overshadowed by contemporary historical issues and the urgent relevance of modern conflicts and transitions. - Limited Exploration of Rural Histories:
