Between 1791 and 1804, the only successful slave rebellion in human history occurred.

The revolution was an insurrection of enslaved Africans against French colonial rule in the Caribbean colony of Saint-Dominge. 

The success of the revolution led to the establishment of a free state known as Haiti.

Yet, despite achieving their freedom, the aftermath of the Haitian Revolution has led to long-term problems that plague the country to this day.

Learn more about the Haitian Revolution and why it was successful on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

In 1885, the Russian Tsar Alexander III commissioned an Easter gift for his wife.

It was a rather unusual gift. He asked one of the finest goldsmiths in the country to create a jeweled egg.

However, it wasn’t just to be an expensive bauble. Inside the egg was to be another exquisite surprise. 

This began a tradition that would last for over 30 years and resulted in some of the finest and most valuable decorative works of art in the world.

Learn about Fabergé Eggs, their creation, and the stories behind them on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

One of the most important inventions of the 20th century was the transistor. 

Prior to the transistor, electronic devices were large and bulky and dependent on vacuum tubes.  Vacuum tubes were large, fragile, power-hungry, and prone to failure.

The transistor not only replaced the vacuum tube in many applications but also enabled the miniaturization and reliability required for modern electronics, including computers, phones, and spacecraft.

Learn more about transistors, how they work, and how they were invented on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

In the 5th century BC, the Greek world found itself in the middle of one of its greatest wars. This wasn’t one of their existential conflicts against the Persians; this was a war of Greeks against Greeks. 

An alliance of city-states led by Athens fought a coalition led by Sparta for control of the Greek world. 

Over nearly 30 years, the two city-states fought for supremacy, leaving a lasting impact on the Greek world.

Learn more about the Peloponnesian War, its causes, and its resolution on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Guillotine has become infamous for being the main weapon utilized during the Reign of Terror and a modern symbol of the French Revolution and the Reign of Terror.  

It has been responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands of people since its invention in April of 1792.

Of all the ways to execute people, why did they create an elaborate contraption when simpler methods were available?

Learn more about the guillotine, why it was invented, and its impact on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

One of the most important inventions in human history was artificial lighting.
With the electric lightbulb, the night could be illuminated, allowing people to extend the productive hours in a day and to work in places that were otherwise difficult or impossible. 

While the incandescent bulb was a breakthrough, it wasn’t actually very efficient. It wouldn’t be until decades later that a radically more efficient way of producing artificial light would be developed.

Learn more about LEDs or light-emitting diodes and how they work on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The 19th Century wasn’t a good one for China. It was marked by the nation being taken advantage of by foreign powers and the signing of lopsided treaties. 

The 20th Century started out promising, but eventually devolved into a series of warlords and a civil war between two major forces for control of the country, on top of the Japanese occupation of most of the country. 

When the dust settled in 1949, the victors were the Communists. China and the world haven’t been the same since.

Learn more about the Chinese Communist Revolution, why it happened, and how the Communists won on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Michigan and Ohio are two states renowned for their intense rivalry. 

When you think of the rivalry between the two states, you may automatically think of the rivalry between the University of Michigan and Ohio State on the football field. 

However, their rivalry extends far beyond that.

In 1835 and 1836, the two states came close to going to war over a border dispute. 

The results of that dispute can still be seen on the map today.

Learn about the history of one of the most vicious interstate rivalries in the United States on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The months of the year are named after Roman god, and some are named after their placement in the year. However, the first month to be named after an actual person was the month of July, which was named after Julius Caesar. 

What is surprising isn’t that the name of the month has stuck for over 2000 years, it's that more rulers didn’t try to name months of the year after themselves. 

Many more rulers would have done this if they had answered their subjects’ questions.
