The Alternate History Show-Episode8-Rhodesia and Zimbabwe
In this episode, I am joined by Charlton Cussans, who is an expert on all things Rhodesia/Zimbabwe, so much so that he's written a dissertation on it!
In part1, we discuss the 1922 Rhodesian unification with South Africa that never was and the Unification of the North and the South.
In part2, we touch on the runup to UDI (along with the declaration itself) and in the third part, we imagine alternate scenarios surrounding the Lancaster House agreement and ask, did Zimbabwe need a Mandela? Plus there's Alex Wallace with all the AH news you should know about in the Feedback Hub.
