Starting a full series on the Silk Road this week. Not the romanticized version — the real one. Zhang Qian's failed diplomatic mission that accidentally opened the routes. The Sogdian merchants who actually ran the system. How plague traveled the same roads as silk. And why Portuguese ships eventually made the whole thing economically obsolete. Seven chapters covering the full arc, from Han Dynasty origins to the Cape route replacement. Starting with Chapter 1 today.
