ITU and History: A Single-Axiom View of Ancient Civilizations, Classical Antiquity, Medieval, Modern Era, World Wars, Historical Method, Global History, and AI Historiography — Pass-1 Extension Paper #7, Block C 5/6

We apply the Information-Theoretic Unification (ITU) framework (Terada 2026, concept DOI 10. 5281/zenodo. 20109209; Tier 0 v3. 0 at 10. 5281/zenodo. 20200156) tohistory and historiography. Tier 1 paper #37, seventh paper of Pass-1extension, Block C 5/6 = 83% of social/humanities/arts. Introduces Kₕistory across 8 sub-states (ancient, classical, medieval, modern, war, method, global, AI). ITU axiom delta S = delta verified to machineprecision (relₑrr = 0) in 11 contexts. 37-vertex ITU polytope. Theoretical position: History = trajectory of Kᵤniverse (t) in social space. Phase transitions = major turning points (agriculture, axial age, industrial, AI revolutions).
