The Thirty Years War was a major war in European history that had a major influence on the future of Europe, yet outside of history people, people seem to know very little besides the basics. I hope you want to learn more about this war and I promise to try to not sound like a dry history book. Welcome to Three Decades of Tragedy!
The podcast Three Decades of Tragedy: A History of the Thirty Years War is created by Nick Lewis. The podcast and the artwork on this page are embedded on this page using the public podcast feed (RSS).
Welcome back to the final episode! We have traversed thirty years, and now we see the aftermath of the war. There is way more than I can cover, so I hope you found an interest to look for yourself what this war did to change Europe. Religion, international diplomacy, and how war was fought all changed as a result of this war. Thank you for listening to me ramble for four years!

Welcome back! This week we go over the debates over the reality of peace and what it would be for the HRE.

Welcome back! Today we cover the events of 1646 as the war starts to come to an end. Granted the beginning of the end is still three years, but after nearly thirty years of on-and-off war, just having an end in sight is a relief. But like always, peace negotiations take time, and war continues as the fighting enters Westphalia, the sight of the negotiations. Thank you for listening and I'll see you guys next time!

Welcome back! Sorry for the late episode, but here we have the war in the north, with Spain versus the Dutch and Spanish. It was just as messy as down south, but with more firm allies up north, France could have a better grasp, though Spain would not make it easy. But politics will also rear its ugly head, especially for Spain, whose lead minister was having issues internally and externally. I hope you enjoy and I'll see you guys next time!

Welcome back to the regular schedule! Sorry about getting this out late. Had family obligations. But this week we cover the crowning of a Bohemian king and the fallout of that. Maybe it will be a boon to the rebellion, maybe not. Either way this was an important part of the early history of this war. I'll see you next week when we cover the Hungarian crown and other foreign involvement.
Also a small correction. When I am talking about "a golden age" I meant to say Frederick, not Ferdinand
