Beneath the shade of an Indonesian teak forest, a great brick gateway stands in ruins...In this episode, I want to tell the story of the Majapahit Empire of medieval Indonesia. I want to show how this empire of the islands grew up on the volcanic island of Java, and how it beat the odds to survive in a world of medieval superpowers. I want to show how Majapahit expanded its influence and dominion to other lands, and undertook voyages that have few precedents in history. And I want to show what happened to bring this empire of the islands finally crashing down...SOURCES: https://www.patreon.com/fallofcivilizations_podcast/posts/sources-for-21-165265269Voice Actors--------------Henry StenhouseMichael Hajiantonis Alexandra Boulton Simon Jackson Catherine James Tom Marshall-Lee Chris Harvey Jack Jacobs Nick Denton Amrit Sandhu Paul Casselle Tim Stephenson Ameen TaherReadings in Old and Middle Javanese were performed by Ferry Sanjaya and Kadha Aditya.Historical advisor: Dr Alex West
