Sometime around the year 1450, a monk living just outside of Venice created one of the greatest maps of the medieval world. 

It was an enormous map, even by modern standards, and it had a level of detail that had never been seen before. 

It took years to make and was a major advancement in cartography. 

Perhaps most importantly, it contained many details that no one had yet verified firsthand. 

Learn more about the Fra Mauro map, how it was created, and its significance on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Located in Central Java, outside of the modern city of Yogyakarta, lies the world’s largest Buddhist temple, Borobudur. 

Borobudur doesn’t get as much attention as other great monuments in the world, but it should certainly be included among them. 

Unlike other great monuments, Borobudur has a distinction that no other monument has. It disappeared, quite literally, for several centuries. 

Learn more about Borobudur, its history, and its significance on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

In the mid-19th century, China experienced its greatest civil war. 

It was a conflict that set China on a course that eventually led to China’s Century of Humiliation and the fall of the Qing Dynasty.

It wasn’t just a massive civil war; in terms of total lives lost, it was far and away the largest war in history up until that point, and by some estimates, it might even have been as or more devastating than the world wars of the 20th century. 

Yet, despite being one of the greatest conflicts in history, it remains largely unknown in the modern world. 

Learn more about the Taiping Rebellion and how it changed China on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

During the Second World War, the Germans used what they thought was an uncrackable encryption system. 

It was a really good encryption system, and for the longest time, the Allies had a difficult time cracking the code. 

However, thanks to brilliant code breakers, a powerful computing machine, and German mistakes, the Allies were finally able to break the code. 

Learn more about the Enigma Code and how it was broken on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Located on the Baltic Sea, sandwiched between the nations of Lithuania and Poland, is the Russian exclave of Kaliningrad.

Kaliningrad, as it is today, does not have a deep history. For most of its history, it was known as Königsberg.

The reason it exists at all dates back to the Teutonic Knights in the Middle Ages and the aftermath of two world wars in the 20th century. 

Today, its status is unique to say the least, and it has the potential to become a geopolitical flashpoint.

Learn more about Kaliningrad and its history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
