Reading Time: 2 minutes

In our first episode in this podcast series that explores the six pivotal years that made the modern Middle East, we look at 1919. This is the year of the Paris Peace Conference after World War I. The modern world was born at those meetings and the modern Middle East was (literally) drawn out on the maps by Europeans in their conference rooms.

In this episode you will encounter famous characters of history like Woodrow Wilson, TE Lawrence, Feisal Hussein, Lord Balfour, and more as we begin our journey through the six years that made the modern Middle East.
