Episode 1 - Introduction

Welcome to the first episode of the Chinese Revolution podcast.This is a podcast series for those who believe that understanding China and its history is important. This show is about the Chinese Revolutions and the events leading up to them.I was inspired by Mike Duncan’s excellent podcast series called Revolutions. A big thank you to him. Mike’s final revolution was the Russian Revolution. Since he did not continue his series, this podcast is meant to follow Revolutions with a detailed look at Chinese history and the Chinese Revolution. The Russian Revolution was of course a major contributor towards the Chinese Revolution…but not a straight line.There is a website to complement this podcast. The website has additional content like maps, pictures, transcripts and more. Please check it out at: chineserevolution.infoAnd please be sure to follow the Chinese Revolution on your podcast player so that you will receive the new episodes.Thanks for listening.Cover art: "Mao Zedong. 1893-1976" by josephbergen is licensed under CC BY-NC-N  Hosted on Acast.
