Are you one of those people that's more interested in the politics and events leading up to history's wars rather than the wars themselves? Then this is the show for you.

Welcome to Why Wars Happened, where we dive into the fascinating political intrigue behind history's biggest wars.

I'm your host, Emily Ross. Each season, we focus on a different historical war and every Wednesday, we release a new episode, continuing the story of the people and events that led to the conflict.

This isn't your normal history podcast. Forget, endless lists of dates, and names, and places. Here, we tell history like a story making Why Wars Happened. Perfect for both history buffs and newcomers to history.

So, grab a drink, hold onto your butts, and tune in weekly to learn more about the causes of history's wars. Season one, the American Revolution is out now. You can listen on Apple, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever else you get your podcasts. See you there on Why Wars Happened.
