178: The War of the Golden Stool

from The History Chap Podcast · host Chris Green

Send me a messageIn 1900, the British Empire launched what would become the final and most dramatic chapter in a decades-long struggle with the Ashanti people of West Africa—the War of the Golden Stool. Also known as the Fifth Anglo-Ashanti War, this conflict was sparked not by land or trade, but by a single, sacred object: the Golden Stool, the symbol of the Ashanti nation’s soul and unity.Become a PatronBuy Me a Coffee (one-off donation)Support the show
