Empires rise and fall, and yet, some stories get lost in the sands of time. Today on History for Weirdos, we're dusting off the annals of history to bring you the tale of Zenobia, the fierce queen of Palmyra. Not your average monarch, Zenobia defied the mighty Roman Empire, carving out her own kingdom in the heart of the Syrian Desert. This wasn't your run-of-the-mill rebellion, folks. We're talking a full-scale challenge to one of the most powerful empires the world has ever seen.
Zenobia was a queen like no other - a warrior, a scholar, and a leader who dared to dream of a world where Rome didn't rule everything. But what led this remarkable woman to challenge an empire? And how did her story end? Join us as we delve into the life and times of this extraordinary figure, exploring the political intrigue, the daring battles, and the ultimate fate of Zenobia, the rebel queen of Palmyra.
