Located at the southern end of the Iberian peninsula is the largest autonomous community in Spain by population and the second largest by area: Andalusia. 

Andalusia is different from the other regions of Spain for a host of reasons. It has a unique history, a unique geography, and a unique culture. 

Moreover, many of the things that people associate with Spain are actually things that come from Andalusia and can seldom be found elsewhere. 

Learn more about Andalusia and what makes it so unique on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

After several years of rising tensions, on May 13, 1846, the United States Congress declared war on the nation of Mexico. 

The war lasted only two years, and the conduct of the war was decidedly one-sided. 

The conclusion of the war resulted in changes to both countries, which can be seen on the map and felt on the ground today. Yet, despite being one of the most important conflicts in the history of both countries, it has been largely forgotten today. 

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

In 1957, a labor leader named Daniel Fignolé was the president of Haiti for 19 days. Just two weeks after his inauguration, he was forced to sign a resignation letter as part of a U.S.-backed coup. But growing up, Rich Benjamin – Fignolé's grandson – didn't know anything about his grandfather's political career. The cultural anthropologist says his family, especially his mother, erected a "wall of silence" around him. A new memoir, Talk to Me, is Benjamin's attempt to fill in these gaps in his family history. In today's episode, the author speaks with NPR's A Martínez about Fignolé's work with labor unions, state-sanctioned silence, and the State Department documents that helped Benjamin piece together his grandfather's story.
