THEN - The Great Moravian Empire (833-907)
Host: Derek DeWitt
On slightly firmer footing facts-wise, we take a look at the Great Moravian Empire - where it was, what is was and, more importantly, who the major players were. But it was certainly not a time of calm and peace. When you are right in the middle of Europe, everyone wants a piece of your pie.
