The Darien Scheme Part 2: One of Scotland's Most Consequential Historical Misadventures
Manage episode 323592549 series 2815329
A Scottish Podcast About Scotland!
Part 2 of The Darien Scheme is bananas. Things go for bad to worse for our band of tartan clad adventuring countrymen.
This week we discuss the lack of preparation, Scotland starting a war with Spain and the many, many deaths that resulted from our attempt to start a colony in Panama.
The TDP Clan continues to support the people of Ukraine and encourage our readers to donate to the below charities if you can spare it:
