In the decades prior to the outbreak of the US Civil War, abolitionists had been ratcheting up their efforts to end the institution of slavery. 

The battle was fought mainly through politics and persuasion, but some were not satisfied with a peaceful approach and felt that more active means were necessary.

One abolitionist stands above others in his willingness to use violence to end the institution of slavery: John Brown. 

Learn about John Brown and his radical abolitionism on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The world as we know it is made up of 193 countries, Antarctica, and a host of territories.
However, between all of those places are the high seas or international waters, which are not controlled by anyone. 

But where do international waters begin? What can you do in international waters? And how close can you actually sail to another country?

Learn more about the Law of the Sea, how it was created, and what it stipulates on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Sometime in the last 24 hours, most of you have used soap or detergent, either directly or indirectly. 

Soap, like many other things, was most likely discovered by accident thousands of years ago. 

Fast forward to today, and these products are used for cleaning almost everything, from our bodies to cars to dishes. 

Soaps and detergents, despite being similar products that serve similar purposes, approach their tasks slightly differently and are used in different circumstances.

Learn more about soap and detergent, how they were developed, and how they work on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

In the late 19th century, during the scramble for Africa, King Leopold II of Belgium seized a large landmass in Central Africa. 

By doing this, he created the Congo Free State, but this name was a misnomer as it was anything but free. 

King Leopold’s rule over the Congo Free State was defined by tales of brutality, horrific conditions, and massive amounts of death. 

Learn about King Leopold’s Congo Free State on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Prisoners of war or POWs during the 20th century were a part of war.

Beligerant nations had to develop systems to guard, house, and feed their prisoners, and before the war, in 1929, most countries had agreed on how prisoners would be treated in captivity.

In reality, conditions for POWs differed dramatically, particularly for captured German soldiers. Those captured by the Soviets faced a far different fate than those captured by the Americans or British. 

Learn more about German POWs who were held in the United States, what they experienced, and how it shaped the post-war world on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Almost immediately after the death of George Washington in 1799, the United States began to think of ways to commemorate and honor the father of the country. 

The process of creating a monument took decades. There were multiple aborted designs and one idea that was built but never fully implemented. 

What ended up being constructed became the world’s tallest structure at the time and became the icon that defines the city of Washington, DC.

Learn more about the Washington Monument, why it was built, and how on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The country of Czechoslovakia was born and died in the 20th century. 

It was created after a war, suffered through another war, was occupied during the Cold War, and was finally liberated in 1989. 

Once it did become free of Soviet Rule, they decided that maybe they should never have been made into a country in the first place. 

Unlike almost every country that came before it, it managed to dissolve without any violence. 

Learn more about Czechoslovakia, the Velvet Revolution, and the Velvet Divorce on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Sometime around 11,000 years ago, somewhere in the Middle East or Central Asia, someone figured out how they could keep wild sheep and breed them. 

This simple act had enormous consequences for humanity. It improved food production, revolutionized the production of clothing, and even influenced the development of writing. 

Fast forward over 10,000 years, and sheep are still a significant part of the economies of several nations. 

Learn more about the domestication of sheep and how it changed human civilization on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Vietnam War was perhaps the most significant event that took place in the last half of the 20th century. 

It had profound impacts on the United States and, of course, Vietnam.

However, many people have a very simplistic view of the causes of the war. They assume it was just a result of Cold War politics. While that was certainly a cause, the root causes go back much further. 

Learn more about the origins of the Vietnam War and how and why it happened on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
