Mira Historia: Insurance History & Data for All

About the Publication

Mira Historia ("wonderful history") makes complex insurance history and data accessible to everyone. It's the real information and stories that no one knows about. We uncover and translate hard-to-find information—from ancient mutual aid societies, to modern claims practices, to future insurance industry issues—presenting it in clear, engaging language.

This independent publication serves as a valuable resource for:

• Insurance professionals seeking historical context
• Associations needing reliable historical references
• Academics researching insurance evolution
• Nonprofits exploring consumer protection history
• Anyone interested in how insurance affects society

Our articles uncover fascinating stories often buried in academic journals, sealed archives, and forgotten records. From the coffee houses that birthed modern insurance to the evolution of consumer advocacy, Mira Historia bridges the gap between scholarly research and practical understanding.
