When face-to-face with a real Brazilian Portuguese speaker, do you freeze? Do you fear not knowing how to ask for directions in Portuguese or even worse, communicate if there’s an emergency? If your answer to any of these questions was "Yes", then keep listening! If there’s anything more challenging than learning the grammar rules of a new language, it’s knowing what to say while having the courage to speak with confidence. We know how you feel. "How do I get out of this situation?", you may ask yourself, but have yet to find a straight-forward answer. Until now.

Story
At the end of the fifteenth century, Burgundy was extinguished as an independent state. It had been a fabulously wealthy, turbulent region situated between France and Germany, with close links to the English kingdom. Torn apart by the dynastic struggles of early modern Europe, this extraordinary realm vanished from the map. But it became the cradle of what we now know as the Low Countries, modern Belgium and the Netherlands. This is the story of a thousand years, a must-listen narrative history of ambitious aristocrats, family dysfunction, treachery, savage battles, luxury, and madness.
