April 29, 2026 • 15 mins

Bernardo de Gálvez: Forgotten Hero of the American Revolution

April 28, 2026 • 16 mins
When Americans tell the story of the Revolutionary War, the focus usually falls on Washington, Jefferson, and the battles fought in the thirteen colonies.  Yet independence was also won through foreign support. Some of it, in France's case, was quite overt.  Spain also supported the American cause, but its support was more covert.  At the center of it all was a Spanish commander whose campaigns crippled Britain and helped make vi...

The World's Oddest Riots

April 26, 2026 • 14 mins
Most riots are born from serious grievances: politics, poverty, religion, or oppression.  Yet history is also filled with eruptions of violence that began for reasons so strange, so unexpected, and so absurd that they almost defy belief.  Some changed cities, some embarrassed governments, and some remain nearly impossible to explain.  What could drive ordinary people into chaos over something seemingly trivial?  Learn more abou...

The Caucasus: Where Europe Meets Asia

April 24, 2026 • 14 mins
