Everything Everywhere Daily - The Battle of Adrianople

On August 9, 378, one of the most important battles in history took place. 

While largely forgotten today, it was a critical battle that contributed to the collapse of the Roman Empire. 

It wasn’t just a loss for the Roman army; it also resulted in the death of an emperor, and it also contributed to the rise of a group known as the Visigoths, who would go on to spread throughout much of Europe over the next several centuries. 

Learn more about the Battle of Adrianople and how it changed the course of history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Smuggling Silk Out of China (Encore)

There was no product more important to the economy of the ancient world than silk. 

Silk was transported thousands of miles to be purchased by people so far away from its source that they had no clue where it came from. 

The source of silk, however, was China, and for centuries, they had a monopoly, which brought them tremendous wealth. 

That was until they didn’t. 

Learn more about how the secret to silk was smuggled out of China, and the silk monopoly was broken on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
