Do you know what happened in the year 1800? We don't either. But Martin Wallace does. And he made a board game about it. Help us explore this wonderful history, when countries didn't go to war but developed factories, didn't charge one another money but traded with ships, when gold materialized out of thin air, and when workers weren't paid in anything but a one-time discharge of schnapps and pants. It was a capitalist utopia.

And part two is a discussion of using other people's stuff, AKA exploitative capitalism in board games.
