This episode has some disturbing descriptions. I began researching for this podcast about 2 1/2 years ago. I could not have imagined in 2021 that we would have witnessed the recent attack on Israel now. This episode seems like it might be poorly timed, but I think it is more important than ever to be aware of what the SS did to jewish people in Eur…

"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." If you have not listened to part 1 of this series, I recommend doing that first. The purpose of the series is to understand the police state that Nazi Germany became and to see the difference between the SS, the SA, the SD, the Ordnungs Polizei and the Gestapo, if there is a distincti…

Here it is! The finale - the culmination of the other three episodes where we have worked toward an understanding of where political forces stood in the mid-20th century. I start this episode after the 1936-7 elections in India under the Raj and end it 10 years later with Indian and Pakistan Independence. That decade packs a wallop for stuff happen…

Episode 1 of the India-Pakistan partition was a quick introduction to centuries of Indian history, but I could not ignore all the details of just the 18th century. There was so much happening! Afghan invasions, Sikh reprisal on the Mughals, south India allegiances, multiple Mughal emperors, defiance against British expansionism, and all of that pro…

You have to listen to this! In 1947, Britain effectively abandoned its responsibility to India after a few hundred years of pillaging the wealth from the Asian subcontinent. We'll get to that... But part of trying to understand the events of 1947, is laying a foundation of what had happened in India and surrounding areas in the previous centuries. …

In Episode 1, I discussed the different players contributing to the rising tensions in the Spanish Republic in the years leading up to 1936. They were the same tensions that were growing across Europe during the years of the Great Depression and all of the instability that had come as a result of the poor economy, failing empires as well as growing…

The civil war that ravaged Spain in the years leading up to World War II has been a footnote to the greater conflicts in Europe in the early 20th century. But it had much greater implications; in some ways it became an extension of the Russian civil war. It was a testing ground for the Nazi war machine, and it allowed Hitler to see how far he could…

If you have patiently listened to the first 2 episodes of this series, I hope you feel educated about the long history of this region. The previous hours have been a preparation to help explain what happened in the 1990s. Yugoslavia is breaking apart in 1991 and there is growing tension between the different Yugoslav republics.

In the late 20th century, as the Iron Curtain fell, the nations that made up the country of Yugoslavia began re-evaluating their relationship to one another and opening some old wounds.
