Everything Everywhere Daily

The 19th Century wasn’t a good one for China. It was marked by the nation being taken advantage of by foreign powers and the signing of lopsided treaties.  The 20th Century started out promising, but eventually devolved into a series of warlords and a civil war between two major forces for control of the country, on top of the Japanese occupation of most of the country.  When the dust settled in 1949, the victors were the Communists. China and the world haven’t been the same since. Learn more about the Chinese Communist Revolution, why it happened, and how the Communists won on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily. ***5th Anniversary Celebration RSVP*** [https://www.facebook.com/events/1383505062910091/] Sponsors Quince * Go to quince.com/daily [http://quince.com/daily] for 365-day returns, plus free shipping on your order!

Michigan and Ohio are two states renowned for their intense rivalry.  When you think of the rivalry between the two states, you may automatically think of the rivalry between the University of Michigan and Ohio State on the football field.  However, their rivalry extends far beyond that. In 1835 and 1836, the two states came close to going to war over a border dispute.  The results of that dispute can still be seen on the map today. Learn about the history of one of the most vicious interstate rivalries in the United States on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily. ***5th Anniversary Celebration RSVP*** [https://www.facebook.com/events/1383505062910091/] Sponsors Quince Go to quince.com/daily [http://quince.com/daily] for 365-day returns, plus free shipping on your order!

The months of the year are named after Roman god, and some are named after their placement in the year. However, the first month to be named after an actual person was the month of July, which was named after Julius Caesar.  What is surprising isn’t that the name of the month has stuck for over 2000 years, it's that more rulers didn’t try to name months of the year after themselves.  Many more rulers would have done this if they had answered their subjects’ questions.  Join me for volume 32 of questions and answers on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.  ***5th Anniversary Celebration RSVP*** [https://www.facebook.com/events/1383505062910091/] Sponsors * Newspapers.com * Get 20% off your subscription to Newspapers.com [https://go.newspapers.com/wwiihistory?xid=5602&utm_source=EverythingEverywherepodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=EverythingEverywhere24] * Mint Mobile * Cut your wireless bill to 15 bucks a month at mintmobile.com/eed [http://mintmobile.com/eed] * Quince * Go to quince.com/daily [http://quince.com/daily] for 365-day returns, plus free shipping on your order! * Stitch Fix * Go to stitchfix.com/everywhere [http://stitchfix.com/everywhere] to have a stylist help you look your best * Stash * Go to get.stash.com/EVERYTHING [http://get.stash.com/EVERYTHING] to see how you can receive $25 towards your first stock purchase and to view important disclosures.

Marcus Licinius Crassus was the richest man in the Roman Republic.  His wealth bought him power and influence, but it couldn’t buy him everything. His massive wealth couldn’t give him the respect and authority that came from victory on the battlefield.  His desperate attempt to achieve this glory led to his spectacular demise and ultimately the fall of the Roman Republic.  Learn more about Crassus and his stunning rise and fall on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily. ***5th Anniversary Celebration RSVP*** [https://www.facebook.com/events/1383505062910091/] Sponsors * Newspapers.com * Get 20% off your subscription to Newspapers.com [https://go.newspapers.com/wwiihistory?xid=5602&utm_source=EverythingEverywherepodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=EverythingEverywhere24] * Mint Mobile * Cut your wireless bill to 15 bucks a month at mintmobile.com/eed [http://mintmobile.com/eed] * Quince * Go to quince.com/daily [http://quince.com/daily] for 365-day returns, plus free shipping on your order! * Stitch Fix * Go to stitchfix.com/everywhere [http://stitchfix.com/everywhere] to have a stylist help you look your best * Stash * Go to get.stash.com/EVERYTHING [http://get.stash.com/EVERYTHING] to see how you can receive $25 towards your first stock purchase and to view important disclosures.
