Who truly started the First World War? While history books often point to a single assassination in Sarajevo, this deep dive reveals the master architect behind the global catastrophe: King Edward VII.

In this episode, we explore how "Uncle Bertie" transitioned from a royal rake into the autocrat of British foreign policy, weaving the "Nessus robe" that would eventually entangle and destroy the German Empire. We break down:

• The Triple Entente: How Edward personally engineered the alliances between Britain, France, and Russia to encircle Germany.

• The Lord of the Flies: A look into the dark side of the Edwardian court, from occultism and sex scandals to the shocking evidence linking the Royal Family to the Jack the Ripper murders.

• The International War Party: Edward's network of "stooges," including Winston Churchill, George Clemenceau, and Theodore Roosevelt.

• Geopolitical Deception: How Britain ended "Splendid Isolation" by using Japan as an Asian torpedo and manipulating the Moroccan and Balkan crises to ignite a world-shattering conflict.

Discover the historical truth that challenges the Versailles Treaty's "war guilt" clause and exposes the Venetian-style geopolitics that still haunt our modern world.
