This Winter: the original Season 1 collection - the episodes that started it all.
In this episode we draw the curtains back on Britannia's potentially nefarious plot to tilt the Asian trading silver-balance to their side using opium, sparking a fiery conflict that would leave indelible scars. Discover how the echoes of European influence resonate through the transformative architecture, linguistic developments, and cultural nuances that help shape China's identity today. We shall become acquainted with the resilient figures who graced this historic stage, such as the steadfast Lin Zexu and strategic Lord Palmerston. Unwrap this deeply human tale that blends diverse threads of power, influence, and cultural evolution, creating an intriguing narrative that decorated the landscape of 19th-century China, and subtly moulded its contemporary identity.
