3.6: Everybody Wants To Rule The World

3.6: Everybody Wants To Rule The World

This is the absurd tale of the second king of Persia, Cambyses, who was known for starting the Persian navy, conquering Egypt, and being incredibly insane. Or, perhaps that's not the full story. Eventually, every incompetent fool in power has it taken from him, but in this case we get a rare historical example of a truly functional leader taking his place... after some shenanigans.

3.5: Cyrus The Great, King Of Kings

This is the story of one of the most important men in history, who a lot of people have never even heard of. Cyrus The Great was... Great, and his story is too.

3.4: Chaos Out Of Order

There is a lot going on in this episode. Maybe I'll re write this someday to explain that, but i got stuff to do right now, so just listen to it. It's a great story. Thanks, Wilson King.

3.3: Karma Is... A Mean Female Dog- The Fall Of Assyria

Assyria was truly a charming civilization. After almost half a century of their brutal domination of every civilization they made contact with, they finally got a tummy ache, so everyone went to Assyria to return their hospitality.

3.2: It's Only A Warcrime If You Lose- The Crimson Age Of Assyria

Remember the last episode where i talked about how the Assyrians were a bunch of violent nutjobs? Yeah, they kept doing that for quite a while. A lot of big picture developments happen in this episode though, so... listen to it. It's so cool to not live in times like the one in this episode. Thanks for listening, grow some cabbages! <3
