Expanding the Ancient World is a series of professional development workshops and online resources for teachers. During the second half of the first millennium CE, societies across the globe were connected with each other through conquest, trade, intellectual exchange, and climatological phenomena. While some of these connections have reached world history textbooks under the umbrella term 'silk road networks', the actual impact, nuances, and the limits of global connectivity in Afro-Eurasia and outside of it are hard to grasp and even harder to teach.
