In today's episode of Places People Purpose, we bid adieu to the enchanting city of Prague and set our course towards the heart of Europe, the city of love and lights—Paris. Join me on this captivating journey, where I share the vibrant history of Paris, a city that has witnessed the ebb and flow of civilizations, triumphs, and tribulations.

🌍 Episode Highlights:

- Paris: A Tapestry of Centuries: To set the stage, we delve into the annals of time, tracing Paris back to the 3rd Century BCE when the Celtic tribe Parisii established a village, laying the foundation for what would become the City of Lights. The Roman era ushered in the town of Lutetia, leaving behind remnants like the Thermes de Cluny and a Gallo-Roman amphitheater, weaving tales of a bygone era.

- Archaeological Marvels Unearthed: Discover the excitement of recent archaeological finds—50 burial sites beneath the bustling intersection of Observatoire avenue and the boulevard de Port-Royal. As construction for the Port-Royal station unfolded, the past resurfaced, revealing tombs, artifacts, and a vivid snapshot of life in ancient Paris.

- The Rise and Fall of Empires: From the Franks seizing control in the 5th century to the captivating Capetian rule, Paris weathered Viking raids and political shifts. Fast forward to the Hundred Years' War, the Bubonic Plague, and the indomitable spirit of Joan of Arc, navigating through triumphs and tragedies that shaped the city's destiny.

- Louis XIV and the Era of Opulence: Witness the opulent reign of Louis XIV, whose influence reverberated through the construction of the Palace of Versailles, making it the epicenter of political and cultural life in France. The Seven Years' War, however, cast shadows, reshaping territorial lines and straining the French monarchy.

- Revolution and Transformation: As we approach the late 18th century, Paris stands at the brink of revolution. The tension between the monarchy and the discontented commoners erupts with the storming of the Bastille on July 14, 1789—a day eternally celebrated as Bastille Day. The French Revolution unfolds, leading to the abolition of the monarchy and the advent of democratic ideals.

That concludes our exploration of Paris' early history.
