Shame on you! But don't throw in the towel yet! You might find an interesting topic here, or at least a little direction. For starters, try these links. They were randomly chosen and are certainly not comprehensive, but they do cover some topics which I have not yet written articles about.
Today in Asian History
Pick a date, click on the link and see what happened. It can be a good place to get ideas if you are really starting from scratch, not to mention just plain fun for those without looming deadlines.
WWW Virtual Library
Huge history resource.
Ancient India
Written in a style for the younger set, but a very good site to take a look at. Interesting and well written.
Sun Yat-sen
A short but good biography.
The Boxer Rebellion
Fascinating episode and turning point in China's history. It won't help now, but look for an article here in the near future on the significance of the Boxer Rebellion.
Trade or Opium
Would any study be complete without reading Karl Marx? This article, written in 1858, analyzes the Opium War in China. Great primary source.
