When you think of international trade and globalization, you probably think it is a relatively modern phenomenon.


However, the roots of globalization actually go back thousands of years. 


While there were many products that were originally traded, there was one particular category of goods that drove trade like no other: spices. 


Spices are common and ubiquitous today, but centuries ago they were extremely prized and valuable.


Learn more about the spice trade and how it shaped the world we live in today, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
