It’s all about how his way of thinking—starting with basic truths and building up logical arguments—became a kind of blueprint for how people like Jefferson and others thought about law, rights, and even the structure of the U.S. government. Turns out, geometry isn’t just for math class—it helped shape a whole country.

In this episode, we dive into the Soviet-Afghan War (1979–1989), a brutal and complex conflict that became a Cold War battleground.

A pivotal chapter in modern history, this war set the stage for decades of geopolitical tension and regional instability.
