In November 1884, representatives from a dozen European countries met in Berlin.
The reason for the meeting was audacious. They were going to carve up the continent of Africa between them.
No one from Africa was in attendance at the conference, and no one was even invited. The decisions they made at this conference, and in the decades that followed, can still be felt in the world today.
Learn more about the European Scramble for Africa and how the European powers carved up a continent on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Located north of 66°33′ North latitude is the region we call the Arctic.
The Arctic is unlike any other environment on Earth, even the Antarctic. It is sparsely populated and has unique wildlife and a biome that can’t be found anywhere else.
It completely dark in the winter and the sun never sets in the summer…and of course, it is really cold.
Learn more about the Arctic and what makes it so special on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

For generations, families have attended circuses.
Circuses were a collection of animals, acrobats, clowns, and other exotic oddities.
In an era before television and the internet, circuses were a major form of entertainment for many people.
Over time, however, circuses have changed and evolved into something very different in the 21st century.
Learn more about circuses, how they came about and how they changed on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The universe is billions of years old.
If, in the future, humanity were to explore the galaxy and visit other planets around other stars, we might be visiting places where at one time, an advanced civilization once existed.
However, if such a civilization existed, it might have been millions of years in the past. If that was the case, how would we even know that it existed?
Also, what if we ask that same question of Earth rather than of alien worlds?
Learn more about the Silurian Hypothesis on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
