Ignatius Valentine Chirol bol britský novinár a historik, známy svojim vášnivým imperializmom. Jeho diela sa často zameriavali na vnímané hrozby pre Britské impérium, najmä z nemeckej a moslimskej strany. Vďaka vzdelaniu v cudzích jazykoch a diplomatickým skúsenostiam Chirol cestoval a skúmal medzinárodné vzťahy. Jeho rané dielo po cestách po Balkáne, "Twixt Greek and Turk", odráža jeho záujem o geopolitiku a historické konflikty.
