I may have missed some, but here are the changes I noticed in Chapter 15-16 of Story of the World, Volume 1. You can find a list of all SOTW Vol 1 changes I've recorded here.
CHAPTER 15
Section 1 - Phoenician Traders
They have a different, better map of the Phoenician empire in the Revised version. Other than that and some small punctuation changes there's no changes to this section.
Section 2 -
Some of the paragraphs were split up and the story of Dido is in indented/outlined section.
Paragraph 3 (Revised):
The revised version mentions that Carthage was first settled around 814 BC/BCE. In the original it says, in a footnote to parents, not in the main text, that it was founded in 850 BC/BCE.
CHAPTER 16
Section 1 - Ashurbanipal's Attack
In paragraph 4 of the revised version, it added the date that Ashurbanipal became king (668 BC).
In the 8th paragraph the wording of two sentences changed slightly.
Original: Ashurbanipal wasn't very kind to the cities he conquered.
Revised: Ashurbanipal was cruel and ruthless to the cities he conquered.
Original: Most cities were too frightened to resist Ashurbanipal!
Revised: Most cities were too frightened to resist Ashurbanipal for long.
