Everything Everywhere Daily - The Dreyfus Affair
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, France was shaken by a crisis that shook French society.
An army officer was wrongly convicted in a sham trial. Then over the next several years, the French military doubled down, refusing to acknowledge what they had done, and punished everyone who attempted to prove them wrong, and even letting the guilty party go.
The long-term results of the controversy changed France in ways that can still be felt today.
Learn more about the Dreyfus affair, why it happened, and how it affected French society on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Lost Legion
One of the most legendary legions in the history of the Roman military was the Legio IX (nonam) Hispana, or the Ninth Spanish Legion.
They served under Pompey the Great and later with Julius Caesar in Gaul. They later served Augustus and were pivotal in the conquest of Britain under Emperor Claudius.
Then at some point, they simply disappeared. There was never a mention of them again in the historical record.
For almost 2000 years, it has been one of the world’s greatest historical mysteries.
Learn more about the missing Legion and what might have happened to them on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The War of 1812 (Encore)
After the American War of Independence, Britain recognized the United States, but it didn’t necessarily make them close allies.
Each country had its own agendas, and a generation later, they were butting heads again over a host of issues.
The result was another war, but unlike the Revolutionary War, everyone claimed victory, and no one really won anything.
Learn more about the War of 1812, its causes, and its resolution on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
