Finally, the British discovered a successful counter measure, a product China actually seemed ready to buy: opium. British traders built a massive opium trade that refilled the Empire's coffers and destabilized China’s economy and society. When Chinese officials tried to stop the flow, it set off a chain of events that escalated into war, opening the country by force and reshaping global power dynamics for generations. This is the story about the Opium War, and how a simple craving for tea led to a full scale war.

This is the story of Emperor Ashoka, and how one emperor’s change of heart helped spreading new philosophies and inspired mathematical ideas that still shape how we understand the world today.
