Angie reminds us all to call our moms this Sunday as she regales us with the story of Atossa, Queen Mother of Persia. This woman made more kings than Catherine de' Medici, and that’s saying something. As the daughter of Cyrus the Great, she marries Darius the Great and gives birth to Xerxes. This episode pairs well with:
The Battle of Aizu
The First Japanese Man in The USA – John Mung
Artemisia I of Halicarnassus
