The Many, Many Invasions of Sicily
Confirmed 3
Located in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea is its largest island: Sicily.  Given its size and location, Sicily has been the key for any empire, kingdom, or civilization that wanted to control the Mediterranean. As a result, Sicily has been one of the most contested pieces of land in the history of the world. For over three thousand years, one army after another invaded and occupied the island before getting kicked out by the next one. Learn more about Sicily and its long history of invasion and conquest on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The History of Military Ranks (Encore)
Confirmed 5
Every military in the world is a hierarchical organization. There are people at the top who make decisions, people down below who follow those orders, and people in between who make it happen.  Today, most militaries have an elaborate rank structure with multiple ranks in the chain of command.  However, it wasn’t always like that. The modern system of ranks evolved over time, and the ranks that exist today have origins that go back centuries.  Learn more about military ranks, where they came from, and what they mean on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Cruciferous Vegetables (Encore)
1
One of the most common food items consumed today are cruciferous vegetables. Even if you aren’t familiar with the term, you almost certainly have consumed some before, and there is a good chance you do so on a regular basis.  What many people don’t know is that these vegetables are actually rather modern.  Early neolithic humans never ate broccoli, cabbage, or Brussels sprouts because humans invented these foods.  Learn more about cruciferous vegetables and where they came from on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The History of Whaling

Whaling is something that humans have engaged in for thousands of years. For most of that time, indigenous groups conducted it on a small scale for survival purposes. Over time, whaling became commercialized, the annual whale harvest exploded, and whaling became a cornerstone of the early industrial revolution.  Alas, it couldn’t last forever. Learn more about whaling, its rise, and its fall, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Every March, the United States experiences a period known as March Madness.  It is the time when college basketball teams compete for a national championship.  The process of crowning a national champion is a months-long process where teams vie for a chance to make the national tournament.  From there, in theory, every team that makes the big dance has a shot at becoming a champion.

Why is the Alphabet in Alphabetical Order?
4
All of you are familiar with the ABCs. It is one of the very first things that children are taught. Not only are they taught the letters that comprise the alphabet, but they are also, usually at the same time, taught the order of the alphabet.  The order of the alphabet is something that is so ingrained that most of us usually don’t even think about it. Yet, if you think about it, the order of the letters is completely arbitrary, but if we didn’t have an order, our world would be very different.  Learn more about why the alphabet is in alphabetical order on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Battle of Gettysburg

In the summer of 1863, after two years of war, Confederate General Robert E. Lee felt it was possible to swiftly end the conflict by taking the fight to the Union.  Up until this point, almost all of the fighting had taken place in Virginia. Lee felt that by moving to the north, he could achieve several objectives that would lead the Union to seek peace. His march to the north resulted in the largest battle of the war, which would ultimately be the turning point of the entire conflict.
