The times they are a changin' in major ways all over the ancient world. We are in the 550s BC and starting the backstory of one of the greatest events in world history - The Greek & Persian Wars. East vs West. The world's first historian begins it this way:THESE are the researches of Herodotus of Halicarnassus, which he publishes, in the hope of thereby preserving from decay the remembrance of what men have done, and of preventing the great and wonderful actions of the Greeks and the Barbarians from losing their due meed of glory; and withal to put on record what were their grounds of feuds.The Fans of History Dan and Bernie couldn't have said it any better!Cyrus the Great is shaking up the East. Like EARTHQUAKE shaking it. Empires that ruled for centuries are being wiped out. The Greeks have colonized just about every available plot of open land. But the Greeks are not an empire like in the East... they are a rambunctious array of peoples who like to write poetry and ponder the universe and will also run each other through with spears. Democracy is forming in Athens but can it last with the non-democratic, ambitions of Sparta?In this pivitol episode Pisistratus comes back in style, Bernie puts the conspiracy of giants to bed, and Dan refuses to kink shame. Plus the usual laughs and insights you can only get from Fan of History Podcast!Link:https://podcastofbiblicalproportions.com/This is a podcast by Dan Hörning and Bernie Maopolski.If you like what we do you can support the Fan of History project on https://www.patreon.com/fanofhistoryContact information:http://facebook.com/fanofhistoryhttps://twitter.com/danhorninghttps://www.instagram.com/dan_horning/Music: “Tudor Theme” by urmymuse.Used here under a commercial Creative Commons license.
