Podcast
After spending time as a tour guide, I became frustrated by only being able to discuss Berlin and German history.

Ukraine's Story (Part 6): The Ukrainian People's Republic
Did you know Ukraine did in fact have a short period of independence after the Russian Revolution? When Russia descended into chaos after the abdication of the Tsar in March 1917, Ukraine seized its chance and became the Ukrainian People's Republic. Borne out of the turmoil of war and revolution, the UPR grappled with intense instability driven by shifting geopolitical forces, internal divisions, and foreign interventions, reflecting a volatile period of uncertainty and political flux. Unfortunately, it was doomed from the start.
