I have spoken on the great divergence before with my twin videos on the history of the steppe here: youtube.com/watch?v=IOKppujUy60 and here: youtube.com/watch?v=vGXHkpGAhY8, but this episode will discuss what I consider one of the key underlying factors of the great divergence, literacy.

Tune in for an entertaining and informative show.
