For thousands of years, before Europeans crossed the Atlantic or steamships crossed the seas, the Indian Ocean connected the known world.

Merchants riding the monsoon winds carried spices, silk, gold, ivory, porcelain, and ideas between Africa, Arabia, India, Southeast Asia, and China. 

Along these routes, religions spread, empires rose, and some of the world’s richest trading cities emerged. It was a commercial system that shaped history long before the modern global economy existed.

Learn more about the Indian Ocean Trade and how it helped forge civilizations on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
