In the ancient world, Rome's elite craved a fabric so luxurious it was thought to grow on trees. Intrepid explorers forged new paths across continents to meet this demand, creating a web of trade routes that became the very first Silk Roads. Beyond just goods, these routes sparked an exchange of ideas and beliefs between Rome and Han China.

Dr. Jane Goodall, DBE, the renowned conservationist and ethologist, had a legendary career illuminating the complex social lives of chimpanzees and advocating for animal and environmental rights. At a time when women were discouraged from careers in science, Goodall became one of the most recognized scientists of her time after receiving support from the National Geographic Society to study chimpanzees in 1961. National Geographic followed Goodall’s chimpanzee research and conservation work in a career that forever changed how we understand animal behavior.
