It sounds like you would be the perfect writer to do just that. That is what writers do, they find something of interest, learn about it, read about it, and research it, then start writing.
I'm still not exactly certain how this question-and-answer part works, so I'm not sure who will see this answer. But I am in the process of making some slide-show presentations about Middle East history. I just finished publishing my first one when I saw your question.
You can see my stuff at hubpages.com/hub/Middle-East-Ruled-the-Worl.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
