Wow, episode 99. I like the symmetry of having episode 99 be a summary of the world in 1899.    Last episode, we looked at the changes in technology, science, and worldview that occurred in the 1800’s, and like I said, there was an enormous amount of change from 1800 to 1899.  This episode, I want to summarize all the big stuff that happened in the 1800’s, and give us a kind of starting point for the world as it goes into the 20th century.  Or, as I prefer to call it, the 1900’s.  I want to sort of set the stage for all the things that are about to happen in the early 1900’s.But first, let’s do some summarizing of what happened in the 1800’s.  I’m going to go kind of regionally, by continent, starting with North America.  Website:  shortwalkthroughhistory.comemail:  [email protected]
