In medieval Europe, legal divorce as understood today did not exist; instead, marriages were primarily dissolved through annulments or legal separations. Annulments declared a marriage invalid from the start, while separations allowed spouses to live apart, but did not allow remarriage.  In the case of Royalty this got really messy at times Learn more about your ad choices.

How did we get to modern divorce rates? Divorce laws and practices have evolved significantly throughout history, from ancient codified rules to modern no-fault divorce systems. The earliest evidence of divorce laws can be found in ancient Mesopotamia, with the Code of Hammurabi (1760 BC) outlining divorce procedures. Modern divorce patterns emerged in the 18th and 19th centuries, influenced by changing societal views on marriage and the concept of "love marriages". In the United States, the shift towards no-fault divorce, exemplified by California's 1969 law, dramatically increased divorce rates. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Eating utensils have been used since the Stone Age of mankind. During this time, eating utensils consisted of simple sharp stones intended for cutting meat and fruit. The Neolithic times brought the rise of technology that improved tools that were needed for production, preparation and eating of food.

At the beginning of the 20th century, an expanding United States wanted a way to expedite naval passage between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. And in 1904, Panama granted the United States the right to build and operate a canal and control five miles of land on either side of the water. But ownership of the region had been a thorny issue for decades as Panamanians were locked out of the prosperity the canal created right in their own front yard, and in 1977 President Carter signed a treaty with Panamanian Chief of Government Omar Torrijos to return the canal area to Panama. Since then, Panama has invested nearly $6 billion to improve the infrastructure and increase the shipping capacity to expand the canal's use worldwide. The Panama Canal was not an issue in the 2024 election, but in December, President Trump began claiming that the United States, the shipping lane's biggest user, was “being severely overcharged and not treated fairly” and threatened to “take [the canal] back or something very powerful is going to happen.” Support me on Patreon for extra content. https://www.patreon.com/stakuyi For sources: Make sure to check out my Patreon, I will be posting all sources there for future videos for the public BUY MY COFFEE IT'S DELICIOUS https://tablowroastingco.com/products/stakuyi-lewis-dark Subscribe to my channels and let me know what more you would like to see.

The French effort to build a sea-level canal through Panama's mountainous jungle failed due to dangerous, difficult work, insurmountable financial problems, ceaseless rains that triggered mudslides, and corruption and scandal. The French company in charge went bankrupt in 1889, with an estimated 20,000 workers dead. The French had spent $262,000,000 on the project, with little to show. The U.S. later purchased the French company's equipment and promised to do it differently Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Criminal punishment in most of the Western world is fairly straightforward today; most who have committed a crime can simply expect either a fine or varying amounts of prison time based on their misdeed's severity.

The Medieval Tournament was a forum for European knights where they could practice and show off their military skills in activities such as jousting or the mêlée, indulge in a bit of pageantry, display their chivalrous qualities and win both riches and glory. From the 10th to 16th century CE tournaments were the principal expression of aristocratic ideals such as chivalry and noble lineage where family arms and honor were put on the line, ladies were wooed and even national pride was at stake.

Brokered by Czech and Slovak independence leaders, the Legion was formed by the Russian military during WWI to fight Austria-Hungary. After the Revolution, the Legion became entangled in the Civil War and Allied anti-Bolshevik schemes, while its officers meddled in local Russian politics. The Legion took control of the Trans-Siberian Railroad and aligned with the White Armies. After two years of fighting its way through Siberia, the Legion signed a truce with the Bolsheviks, gaining safe passage to Vladivostok, where it was evacuated on Allied ships.  Travel to Turkey with me here Check out our sister podcast the Mystery of Everything Coffee Collab With The Lore Lodge COFFEE Bonus episodes as well as ad-free episodes on Patreon.

In the fall of 1965 the Vietnam War was an event most Americans saw as a series of smaller battles leaving little to remember. That all would change when the First Cavalry Air Mobile Division flew into the Ia Drang Valley in the central highlands of South Vietnam. The Air Mobile Division was a new concept. Battalions would use helicopters to be transferred in and out as artillery support came in from above. This allowed troops to be quickly brought in and out for battle. The central highlands had few roads and challenging terrain, making air mobility the only viable mode of transportation. The Battle of the la Drang Valley would come to be remembered as one of the most iconic battles of the Vietnam War, and later would set the scene for the film We Were Soldiers based on the novel We Were Soldiers Once……And Young. It was the first major combat action between U.S. ground forces and the North Vietnamese Army. And it all began early one fall day.
