Why did Britain — a small island with less than 2% of the world’s population — suddenly break out of thousands of years of poverty and become the first nation to enter modern economic growth?
For centuries, every society followed the same Malthusian logic:
more food → more people → same poverty.
Yet in the 19th century, this pattern collapses for the first time in human history — in Britain.
In this video, we break down the famous “Great Divergence” theory and the arguments of historian Kenneth Pomeranz:
• Was China really as developed as Europe?
• Did colonies and “ghost acres” make Europe rich?
• Why did Spain drown in silver but never become a second Britain?
• And where exactly does the “Europe got rich because of exploitation” story fall apart?
If you want to understand why some nations became rich while others stayed poor — this episode lays the groundwork.
This is the real story behind global wealth.
