In the early 15th century, just before Europe began its Age of Exploration, China was embarking on a series of voyages that put to shame anything anyone in Europe would do for centuries. 

These voyages were led by a man who was the greatest admiral in history up to that point and the ships in his fleet were the largest wooden ships that the world would ever see.

Learn more about the voyages of Admiral Zheng He on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

When Napoleon Bonaparte conquered much of Europe in the early 19th century, he didn’t create a monolithic empire that was centrally run out of Paris.


Well, he sort of did, but at least on paper, he didn’t. Rather, what he did was set up his family members as monarchs to rule in his place. 


One of those family members who was set up as king ended up moving to New Jersey.


Learn more about Joseph Boneparte, the King of New Jersey, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Cato Daily Podcast - Should Ukraine Have Kept Its Nukes?

In the wake of the fall of the Soviet Union, Ukraine suddenly became a major nuclear power, but maintaining a nuclear arsenal isn't exactly simple. As major powers became very concerned about the proliferation of both nuclear technology and know-how, Ukraine became convinced to give up the arsenal. Would keeping the nuclear weapons have deterred Russia today? Eric Gomez details some of the history of why Ukraine gave up nuclear weapons.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Roman Naming Conventions

Subscribe to the podcast! 

https://podfollow.com/everythingeverywhere/


Every culture has a different way of assigning names to people. Sometimes they use different words as names, sometimes names are in a different order, and sometimes they have completely different systems altogether. 


One of the most complicated naming systems in history had to be that used by the ancient Romans. They had a very elaborate system for naming people, with different rules for men and women, and even special rules if you were adopted.


Learn more about Roman naming conventions on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
