Description
Will our modern society ever decline and fall? Dan uses that idea as a backdrop for a look at the first great empire in history, the biblical-era Assyrians. Were they ancient Nazis, or the guardians of civilization?

This episode is my favorite “short” episode. Fantastic overview of the end of the Assyrian empire.

Now this is a very interesting episode. The one thing I think is most important about a study of history is to gain and keep a sense of perspective. This episode is chock full of perspective.
