In the 1920s a German architect named Herman Sorgel had a plan change the landscape of Europe, Asia and Africa. On the heels of such massive undertakings as the Hoover Dam and the TVA, Sorgel envisioned a land where a system of dams and bridges would connect Europe and Africa, emptying the Mediterranean and providing unlimited hydroelectric power to Europe. While this may sound like madness the dream of Atlantropa was real, and Sorgel was taken seriously by many at the time. In this episode, Robin tells us the story of Atlantropa, and it is up to you to decide if it was genius or madness.
