Ranking the “greatest soccer players of all time” often leads to a top three dominated by South Americans: Lionel Messi, Pelé, and Diego Maradona. 

While soccer originated in Europe, its arrival in the Americas was a turning point for the sport.

How did a game with such a late start in the Western Hemisphere evolve into a cultural sensation, and how did these nations become an engine for the world’s most brilliant talent? 

Learn more about the history and rapid ascendancy of soccer across South America on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

In 1848, a series of Revolutions occurred against European Monarchies across the continent.

The revolutions were not part of an organized effort. They were spontaneous and often quite different.

Although ultimately unsuccessful, the Revolutions sparked social change across multiple countries, improving the lives of some and strengthening the power of others. 

Learn about the Revolutions of 1848 on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

In 1922, archeologist Howard Carter stunned the world by discovering King Tut’s tomb in Egypt.

Two years later, his contemporary John Marshall published the results of his excavations of the Indus Valley. 

Marshall’s findings reconstructed the timeline of urban civilization in South Asia, revealing cities with overlapping, sophisticated planning and sanitation systems.

Although it lacked golden artifacts, the discovery demonstrated that ancient South Asia was as advanced and complex as Egypt.

Learn more about the rise and fall of the Indus Valley civilizations on Everything, Everywhere, Daily.

Swimming was one of only four sports to have appeared at every Summer Olympic Games, beginning in 1896.

The sport has been among the most popular events at the Olympic Games since its introduction. In fact, it had the second-highest viewership after Gymnastics in the Paris Olympic Games. 

As simple as competitive swimming seems, perhaps no sport has seen greater improvements in performance than swimming. This is due to a host of innovations that have revolutionized the sport.

Learn about competitive swimming and the advances that have improved performance in this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The story of modern Iran is a collision between a monarchy with a history dating back to the Persian Empire and a frustrated nation with massive oil reserves historically coveted by Western powers.

Governed by an authoritarian monarch in the mid-20th century who welcomed Western influence, the nation grew increasingly resentful of foreign control over its oil.

From this discontent, an influential Islamic cleric fomented dissent while in exile, which ultimately brought down the monarchy.

Learn more about the 1979 Iranian Revolution on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Every February 2nd, a small ceremony takes place in the town of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. 

A crowd will gather to see if a rodent can see its shadow. The results of said shadow seeing are supposed to have implications for the long-term weather forecast. 

If all of that sounds a bit absurd, you are not wrong. 

… and then there is also a movie about it that really has nothing to do with groundhogs.

Learn far more about Groundhog Day than you ever really needed to know on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily

February is upon us. It is a time when we in the United States predict the weather on the basis of a rodent seeing its shadow, and we celebrate American presidents by buying linen and mattresses. 

We also celebrate romance and sweethearts by honoring a 3rd century Roman bishop who was beheaded. 

One thing that does make sense is questions and answers. 

Stay tuned for Questions and Answers: Volume 39 on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

In 1805, an epic confrontation occurred off the southwest coast of Spain, resulting in one of the greatest naval battles in history. 

This monumental sea battle saw the British and French fleets facing each other in one of the most important conflicts of the Napoleonic Wars. When the smoke cleared, the results left the British as the masters of the seas for over a century and radically changed the course of European geopolitics.

The Roman Empire, at its height, was a juggernaut. 

However, during the third century, almost everything fell apart. In fact, for a brief period of time, it arguably did. 

It suffered from invasions, plagues, a collapsing economy, lower agricultural productivity, and numerous political assassinations. 

They eventually solved their problems, but in the process, the Empire was changed forever.

Learn more about the Crisis of the Third Century and how the Roman Empire almost collapsed on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
