California isn’t just another US state. It is the most populous state in the union, and it has an economy which, if it were an independent country, would be the 5th largest in the world.  Yet, this wasn’t always the case. In the 19th century, California wasn’t much at all. Hardly anyone lived there. It was far away from the American center of power and was technically part of Mexico. Yet despite its late start, it more than made up for lost time in the 20th century.  Learn more about California, its history and what makes it so special on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

One of the most important inventions in human history was the bow and arrow.  A bow and arrow is a rather simple device but it was a revolutionary advancement for humanity’s ability to hunt and to fight.  Unlike many very early human inventions, the bow and arrow have had an extremely long lifespan. For thousands of years it remained virtually unchanged. That was until the last 100 years when this age old device changed dramatically.  Learn more about the history of the bow and arrow and how it changed the world on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

From September 1940 until May 1941, the people of the United Kingdom experienced the horrors of war firsthand.  Hundreds of bombers ran thousands of missions over civilian areas of Great Britain.  The hardest hit of all the cities was the capital of London.  By the time the bombing campaign stopped, tens of thousands were killed, over a hundred thousand were injured, and thousands of buildings, including homes, factories, and historic landmarks, were destroyed. Learn more about the Blitz, how and why it happened, and how Britain persevered on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Almost everyone listening to the sound of my voice is a citizen of some country.  Citizenship seems very simple and straightforward, but it is anything but. For most of human history, almost everyone was not a citizen of anything.  Today, it is entirely possible to change citizenship, become a citizen of multiple countries, or possibly even become a citizen of no country at all.  In some countries, the issue of who can become a citizen and how are some of the biggest issues they face. Learn more about citizenship, how it developed, and what it means in the world today on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

In the early 13th century, England suffered through the worst monarch it would have in its history: King John. John and his arbitrary policies and high taxation angered the nobility, the church, and the common people.  However, out of his disastrous reign came something good. An uprising against his rule forced him to sign a document establishing fundamental principles of limited government, the rule of law, and individual rights, marking a crucial milestone in developing constitutional and legal frameworks.

There is an old saying that da Nile isn’t just a river in Egypt. That is true. It is also a river in Sudan, South Sudan, Ethiopia, and Uganda.  The Nile is the longest river in the world, yet it is one of the smallest major rivers in the world.  Historically, some of the world’s greatest civilizations have depended on it, and today it is still a source of conflict between countries that depend on it for water and power.  Learn more about the Nile River and how its geography has and continues to shape history, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The 19th century was a period of rapid advancement. New technologies such as the railroad and the telegraph radically changed civilization.  Scientific advancements were almost constant as we took great strides in understanding our universe.  One such scientific field that saw incredible advances was paleontology.

Ever since humans domesticated animals and realized they could extract milk from them, they have been making and consuming butter.  While we might not think much of butter today, at one point, it was so prized that it was given as an offering to the gods.  While some cultures prized it, others looked down upon it and some elevated the production and use of it as an art form.  Learn more about butter, what it is, how it is made and how it has been used throughout history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

When European explorers set off from Europe, many of them chased things that didn’t exist. The Fountain of Youth, the City of El Dorado, and Prester John were all things they pursued but came up empty-handed.  However, there was one thing that these European explorers searched for that actually did exist, but not in the way they had hoped.  While it was never historically relevant, it could play a much bigger role in the future.  Learn more about the Northwest Passage, its discovery, and its future on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

One of the most famous battles in the history of the American West took place in June 1876.  An alliance of the Lakota Sioux, Northern Cheyenne, and Arapaho tribes faced off against the United States cavalry.  The battle was a rout and one of the most devastating losses for the American military, as well as one of the greatest victories for Plains Indians.  The victory, however, was only temporary as the victory led to an even bigger response, and the loss was actually glorified in the United States for decades.

During the Second World War, the Allies were desperate to develop ideas to help them win the war.  Some of these ideas, such as the atomic bomb and the Norden bombsight, were so promising that they warranted investments of staggering amounts, reaching into the millions and billions of dollars.  Other ideas, such as training bats to drop bombs or pigeon-guided missiles, were so outlandish that they were never seriously considered.  However, there was one idea that seemed crazy, but it actually got attention at the highest levels of government.

One of the most popular board games in the world is Monopoly.  Millions of copies of the game have been sold and thousands of different versions have been published.  However, the origins of the game are not what most people think. In fact, the game was originally designed not as a way for people to win by amassing properties but rather to demonstrate why that was a bad idea.
