The Goings-On West of the Pacific: Asia
Embark on a journey across the powers of the Eastern Hemisphere. Join Marco Polo as he enters China and gazes at the Forbidden city; follow Peter the Great in his conquest of Russia; and imagine ruling the Mongol Empire alongside Genghis Khan, its founder. Listen closely: You hear the conversations of Tchaikovsky and Prokofiev on music; Ivan the Great and Ivan the Terrible, grandfather and grandson, on their different rules of Russia; and Joseph Stalin and Mao Zedong on their visions for their countries. Dive into the minds of Asia. What will you discover?
