Landlocked and often overlooked, Laos sits at the crossroads of Southeast Asia, shaped by empires, rivers, and war.
From the rise of the Lan Xang kingdom to centuries of domination by neighboring powers, from French colonial rule to its role as a Cold War front, its history is anything but quiet.
It is a story of gradual change, shaped by geography, politics, and external influences.
Learn more about the history of Laos on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
