Empire
The rise and fall of empires, rulers, and the events that shaped world history.
Join William Dalrymple and Anita Anand as they uncover the forces behind civilisations, imperial wars, revolutions, ancient battles, and the rulers who built and lost empires.
From empires and conquest to warlords and colonisation, history is shaped by power struggles, military campaigns, and territorial expansion.
