In the finale of Season 1 of the History of Forgotten Lands Podcast, we talk about a country that still exists and has existed for a really long time.

The Republic of Ezo 08.10.2023 9:47 ↓

Republican governments and Japan go together like water and oil

The Banate of Leitha 01.10.2023 9:34 ↓

I'm not sure that I pronounce "Banate" or "Leitha" correctly, but I gave it my best shot.

The Kingdom of Lithuania (1918) 24.09.2023 13:30 ↓

I know I said I wasn't going to keep talking about WWI a while back, but sometimes a story is too good to pass up.

The Transcaucasian Democratic Federative Republic 17.09.2023 19:55 ↓

Turns out, World War I was fought in more places than just France! :0

The Republic of Benin (1967) 10.09.2023 9:48 ↓

Here we have our most confusing episode to date, because we're not talking about THAT Benin, we're talking about the OTHER Benin. Y'know, the one in Nigeria!

The Hashemite Arab Federation 03.09.2023 10:50 ↓

We have a WINNER for the first genuinely inarguable irrefutably legitimate country ever covered on the show!

The United Belgian States 27.08.2023 15:52 ↓

United States of America? Think again buddy, we're talking about the United States of Belgium .

The Ukrainian National Government 20.08.2023 7:24 ↓

A story of hope, triumph, and betrayal. It's extremely dramatic, I promise.

The Republic of Formosa 13.08.2023 13:29 ↓

Yes I know it says "Formosa" and not "Taiwan" but that's just what they called it back then I swear

The Heavenly Kingdom of the Great Mingshun 06.08.2023 12:26 ↓

A kingdom without a king? Sounds like it'll work just fine

The Republic of the Philippines (1897) 30.07.2023 10:26 ↓

I messed up and said 1896 in the audio but I meant 1897, please forgive me :(

The State of Slovenes, Croats, and Serbs 23.07.2023 14:56 ↓

Some day this show will escape the clutches of the Balkan peninsula

The Paris Commune 16.07.2023 22:04 ↓

Turns out, Paris can riot both in 2023 and in 1871

The Kruševo Republic & the Strandzha Commune 09.07.2023 15:14 ↓

In a world first, we've got a two for one special, and real BOGO deal, half off all day baby

The Bremen Council Republic 02.07.2023 17:15 ↓

There's more politics in this one than anything else. Whether that's a good or bad thing is up to you

The People's Republic of Zanzibar and Pemba 25.06.2023 17:33 ↓

Sorry fanboys, this one is not about the Anglo-Zanzibar War :(

12 - The Republic of Lower Canada 18.06.2023 20:57 ↓

Who ever said Canadians are too nice to correct you when you make them mad? Not me.

11 - The Military Administration of the Malvinas, South Georgia and South Sandwich Islands 11.06.2023 24:21 ↓

This episode technically should never have been recorded ;)

10 - The Finnish Socialist Workers' Republic 04.06.2023 20:39 ↓

Today we are talking about a military conflict in Eastern Europe during the 1900s, just for something new

9 - The Empire of Vietnam 28.05.2023 17:21 ↓

I think this is the furthest east we've travelled so far. This one's got all you could ever want in a story; French people, emperors, and communists

8 - The Autonomous Republic of Northern Epirus 21.05.2023 24:06 ↓

Today we're talking about the Balkans in the earliest years of the 20th Century, which means this episode is simple and streamlined :)

7 - The Galician Soviet Socialist Republic 14.05.2023 20:47 ↓

Remember that one time that Poland was a superpower? Me neither.

6 - The Independent State of Macedonia 07.05.2023 19:03 ↓

I've managed to push it off for six whole weeks, but it's finally time to talk about WWII

Episode 5 - The Republic of the Rio Grande 30.04.2023 17:06 ↓

Is it really a history of Mexico if it doesn't involve hostile political takeovers of the federal government?
