Hi everyone and thanks for checking out the China History Podcast. I'm Lausla Montgomery, the creator and presenter of the program going back to the show's humble beginnings back in 2010.

There are more than 300 China History Podcast episodes that examine all kinds of topics that I thought might be of interest to you.

Here you'll find many standalone episodes covering people events dynasties culture and other topics from ancient and modern times.

I also feature a few dozen multi-part series that do a deeper dive into larger topics.

These include the Chinese Civil War, Cultural Revolution, U.S. China History, the lives of Jo-En-Lai, Deng Xiaoping, the history of Hong Kong, Xinjiang, the warlord

era, Chinese philosophy, China Vietnam relations, and tongue poetry, just to name a few.

If you prefer a general overview of Chinese history from the earliest dynasty to the last,

I've also produced a handy 28-part series that, without getting plowed under

with all the Chinese names and terms, offers you a brief chronological overview of Chinese

imperial history from the first mythical

dynasty all the way to the last one which fell in 1912. I won't overwhelm you

with Chinese names and places that, well, to most non-Chinese speakers,

start to all sound the same after a couple episodes.

So to assist you, I've prepared handy lists containing all the Chinese terms used in every episode at my website at

teacup.media. You can view or download them in PDF form for easy reference.

You'll notice the China History Podcast is a

thematic show that introduces a whole bunch of interesting topics in no

particular order rather than presenting the history chronologically, starting four or

five thousand years ago and going dynasty by dynasty, emperor by emperor from the mythical beginnings to recent times.

Here you'll find more than 200 hours worth of podcasts that cover all the heroes, events, villains, rulers, military greats, wars, scholars, scientists, and artists.

Many episodes also feature overseas Chinese history, US China history, and a whole lot more.

You know, listening to many of these history podcasts and other kinds of educational content
