Don't miss our spectacular @EmpirePodUK double bill where @tweeter_anita & I discuss one of the most powerful, kick-ass women in all Indian history- huntress, architect, elephant warrior, designer, political genius, Empress: Nur Jahan, Light of the Palace, Light of the World…
Latest @EmpirePodUK on Isabella of Castile, Isabella the Catholic, likely the most powerful woman in Europe since the fall of Rome, but not otherwise given to being woke in any way. Great podcast.

For centuries Spain had been an outlier in Europe due to its religious diversity; Christians, Jews, and Muslims all existed reasonably peacefully across the Iberian peninsula. Under Isabelle of Castile that all changed.

Can't wait to listen to this one about one of my most favourite places in the world ❤
@EmpirePodUK @DalrympleWill @tweeter_anita Fascinating podcast and Brian Catlos seemed very fair. Therefore I have immediately bought his book. I have been listening to Reconquista podcast for about 3 years which deals with the history of Al-Andalus in detail. 85 episodes in and we are up to 1191.
Absolutely relishing the episodes on Buddhism on the Empire podcast @DalrympleWill @tweeter_anita. King Ashoka was a star ‘influencer’ indeed! Also came across this article today - an interesting angle from the East. bangkokpost.com/opinion/opinio…

@bijurao @DalrympleWill @EmpirePodUK @tweeter_anita 😄 Yes, you are totally right. I was thinking Faiths, but wrote Heaven for some absolutely unknown reason. In my defence, that film is partly filmed in Seville's Alcazar 😄
@McChris85 @DalrympleWill @EmpirePodUK @tweeter_anita I believe you mean Kingdoms of Faith. Kingdom of Heaven is one of Ridley Scott’s best movies (to be precise - only the Director’s Cut version). 🙂
