Our World Talks, with Gerry - Christianity – the beginnings

Christianity – the beginnings

From a historical perspective not necessarily a religious one. What was life like in first century Palestine and how did that influence the nascent Christian movement? Who wrote what and when and what can be safely taken as fact and what needs a bit of a closer look. How did Christianity grow, how did they relate to the Romans and who really invented the Church?

Our World Talk with Gerry Engwerda

The Spice trade

The spice trade has a rich history dating back to ancient civilizations, with prized spices like

cinnamon and pepper traded along overland and sea routes. The Silk Road facilitated

exchanges between East and West, while the Age of Exploration saw European powers

seeking direct access to spice-producing regions. European colonization and competition,

particularly in the Spice Islands, shaped the trade's trajectory. Though its importance declined

with the emergence of new commodities, spices continue to influence global cuisine and

culture today.
