"It Was Walpole."

My latest Internet addiction is on Youtube, a series of animated history digests called "Extra History." They've been at this for a while, and have published a handful of one-off stories of 5-8 minutes in length, but also sets of 5-6 episodes of 5-8 minutes covering a broader topic.

In the past week, I've enjoyed their series on Catherine the Great, Admiral Yi, The First Crusade, the Sengoki Jidia, the Zulu Empire, and more. One of my favourites has been the story of the South Sea Company (https://youtu.be/k1kndKWJKB8), the source of the title of this particular blog posting.

There's a lot of fun & interesting stuff in their collection: go give it a look.
