Historie takes place in ancient Greece and follows the life of Eumenes and his childhood, who would later in his life grow up to be the secretary and general to Alexander the Great. **IMPORTANT:** - Hitoshi Iwaaki frequently redoes the art for volume releases as well as add smaller chapters together. - There are no missing chapters on MangaDex, Chapter 108 "Warped" immediately follows Chapter 97 "Disposal of Olympias (2)", this is because chapters were added together in previous volumes, so the chapter count between volume and magazine are out of sync. --- - **Won the 16th Osamu Tezuka Cultural Prize's Grand Prize in 2012 for Manga** - **Won the 14th Japan Media Arts Festival Grand Prize for Manga**
