What do you get the man who has everything? Why, everything, of course!
Throughout history, attempts have been made to conquer vast swathes of the globe beneath a single banner and ruler. Some notable examples could even have been said to have effectively achieved a mythical domination. But, what does it actually take to win the biggest prize of all? What can be gleaned from the successes and failures of those who came before?
In this episode, I delve into a series of instances over time in an effort to uncover the unique skills each brought to the task in turn. From the ancient world to our modern century, I find that the goal remains fundamentally unchanged, while simultaneously evolving with each passing day.
For those who would seek to achieve their own global dominance, this episode may prove helpful. For the rest of us, it may prove a handy way to prepare ourselves to welcome our next set of overlords.
Besides, what else were you going to do tonight - but try and take over the world!
