About this episode

In the 1880s, a Polish ophthalmologist set out to create a universal language. A language that could be a second language for everyone around that world that no one country or one people would control. 

It was a good idea, but things didn’t quite pan out as he had hoped, and along the way, there was shockingly violent resistance to this new language. 

Learn more about Esperanto, how it was developed, and its status in the world today on this episode of ĉio ĉie ĉiutage.
