Today the History Guy tells two stories of economic history. First he tells the story about Tulip Mania, when beautiful tulips in the Netherlands were worth as much as a house. Then he tells the story of how Queen Victoria’s interest in Fancy chickens helped to create the modern chicken industry we know today.
