6. The Enlightenment

The right to speak your mind. The separation of church and state. The trust in scientific discovery. These pillars of our lives were designed and built during one of history's most pivotal moments: The Enlightenment. In this episode, we travel back to the Enlightenment, a time when a handful of rebellious thinkers armed with reason and logic decided to take on the world. They challenged kings, defied the church, and lit the intellectual fire that would forge modern society. This isn't just a history lesson; it's the origin story of your world. Hosted on Acast.
