343. What is the World’s Oldest Country? (English Vocabulary Lesson)
What is the world's oldest country? This question is not as easy to answer as you might think. We need to discuss what a country actually is, the differences between empires, civilisations, and countries, and then find a place that fits this definition. In this episode I want to introduce you all to a country that I think could be considered the oldest in the world. You might disagree with me, but I think it is an interesting story in any case! Along the way, we will learn some useful vocabulary.
