After spending time as a tour guide, I became frustrated by only being able to discuss Berlin and German history. I wanted to explore stories from around the world—because history everywhere is fascinating! This led me to launch the podcast, originally called “The History Buff,” now rebranded as the Ministry of History Podcast.
In the second episode of Ukraine's Story, we'll cover the Mongol era, which lasted from the Mongol invasion in the early 13th century and lasted until the end of the 15th century. It was also known as the "Tatar Yoke" and oversaw significant political, social, and economic changes to the region, including the imposition of tribute, the introduction of Mongol administrative systems, and the integration of Ukraine into the Mongol Empire.
