Show Notes
We often think global power is all about armies and technology. But what if the most decisive battles are fought through stories?
In this episode of Context, we explore the concept of narrative warfare—the battle over how nations interpret their past, define their identity, and imagine their future.
From Manifest Destiny to the 1619 Project, from China's "Century of Humiliation" to Russia's myth of the "Third Rome," we examine how national stories shape the world order—and what happens when a superpower like America stops believing in its own.
