The American Civil War was a turning point in their history and in this nice little episode I'll present the run down of why and how it happened.

We start this episode at a Native American encampment from which we explore the policies of the US Goverment and the lives of those they effected.

For the inaugural episode of America: Expansion & Consolidation, we start in a frontier town to join those heading west. Bumping into the Mormons and the Miners along the way.

It's the last episode of Conflict & Tension where we go on a journey through the steps to war. From the Rivers of the Rhineland to the Munich Conference we try to discover what went wrong to kick start war. And could they have done better?

This episode looks at the successes and many failures of the LON. Travelling from Abysinnian Oasises to Manchurian Railways to discover why it failed so badly.

The first episode on Conflict & Tension looks at the treaties after the first World War, takes us to the negotiation table at Versailles and explores how fairly Germany was treated after WW1. Sorry the quality isnt perfect - couldn't get into the studio - but hope it helps!
