## Resource

You might have already listened to this one, as it was recorded in 2024, but it was so interesting that I'm sharing it again. Frances Leader is probably the most knowledgeable person in the world on the topic of the Black Nobility. In short, the Black Nobility is a cabal of ruthless, power-hungry aristocrats who have spent centuries manipulating European (and international) politics and finance to further their own interests, dating all the way back to the Roman Empire. 📺 The video episode is available on my website .
