About this episode
Was America once home to a forgotten global empire known as Tartaria? Advocates say yes, pointing to mysteriously ornate architecture, submerged doorways, and inconsistent historical records as proof of a hidden past erased by a catastrophic "mud flood." Critics dismiss this as fantasy, emphasizing well-documented history and cultural misunderstandings.
In this episode, I'll explore both sides, laying out compelling arguments, questioning official and unofficial narratives, and addressing the startling inconsistencies in both. I'll share why I initially believed in this theory and what evidence led me to question its legitimacy.
Some of the stuff we tackle in this episode:
The strange phenomenon of "buried buildings" worldwide.
Why do historical photographs seem empty or edited?
Could mass immigration and unrecorded labor explain rapid construction?
The dark reality of horse-powered cities, hidden slavery, and orphan labor.
The infamous World Fairs—temporary wonders or relics of an advanced lost civilization?
Chapters:
1:32 What is Tartaria?
21:10 Native Americans and Tartarian Tales
16:53 THE MUDFLOOD
34:30 Missing Buildings and the World Fairs
38:59 Who built all the Old World Buildings?
42:11 How did they build the Old World Buildings?
