I was on vacation when this popped so I missed it as well. Next time ECH!

Sean Sarff

Come on! I've been a donor for 3 months and still every time I miss it!

Knightly

No, there's a bit of a backlog. I think there's 3 series between now and this one?

themunck

Hello! New to all this, this started on 21, but the current series is about Khosrau (and christmas in WWI I think), this is the one for the next series after them, right?

Augusto Bonzini

The founding of Canada or JTF2.

Marcus Skerratt

Suggested Bartolomé de Las Casas, "Protector of the Indians". More people need to know his story

Yuval Bar-On

Submitted the Hanseatic League, we need a lesson on Medieval Economics, and one that ties into video games to boot.

Richard Fejdasz

Suggested the Gilded Age of American politics (1876 to 96); who else wants to listen to Dan narrate the crazy events of the 1880 Republican National Convention?

Brian Rose

Submitted a topic for Chhatrapati Shivaji, since we've yet to have any series on India.

Jason Fox

Popping in to confirm that yes, topics do need to be re-suggested each time and they do not carry over from one raffle to the next. We've been doing this for a couple of years now so if we kept them all, the odds of any new suggestion winning would be... very not good!

Extra History

They need to be suggested again. If they went back in they'd have picked mine by now since I do the same one every time.

t.

Vikings!

Andreas

Do the suggestions that don't make it to the voting list go back into the hat or do they need to be suggested each time?

Jessica Cheeri

I suggested talleyrand, a politician whose exploits during the french revolution would have put Walpole to shame

Johan Svensson

Sargon of Akkad and the Sargonic Dynasty again. It's the first empire and the first army, fascinating stuff that changed the course of human history.

Christopher Smith

I'm suggesting Arwa al-Sulayhi again. The little Queen of Sheba. One of the very few ruling Muslim queens.

Jonathan Luoto

Suggesting Kit Carson again. Victim of Fan Fiction. In perhaps one of the most surreal moments of history i have come across. Near the still warm body of a woman he had failed to save was a fictional acount of him saving a woman abuducted by indians. <a href="https://youtu.be/XLxsSGO2VWE?t=37m32s" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/XLxsSGO2VWE?t=37m32s</a>

The Cagayan Battles and Juan Pablo de Carrión. Already suggested. It's not always that a 69 years old guy with fourty soldiers, is capable of beating an army of a thousand pirates.

JohnnyElRojo

I think I'll suggest someone new. Just kidding. Margrete I. Not only an interesting historical character in her own right, as the woman who united 3 rival kingdoms and probably medieval Europe's greatest diplomat and statesmen, she opens up a lot of interesting topics. The benefits and problems that comes with elective monarchy over heredity monarchy. The Hansiatic trade league and how she felt she needed to form an empire to oppose a bunch of merchants. The rise of her father, Valdemar Atterdag, who inherited a pawned off crown and died ruling a united kingdom. How her adopted son Eric gave up kingship and became a pirate. And perhaps most interestingly, why she succeeded where Charles XII of Sweden failed, and why her realm would still splinter again in the end.

themunck

Come on folks, vote Nader Shah. We need to organize!
