SYMHC Classics: The Darien Disaster
This 2011 episode from previous hosts Sarah and Deblina covers an attempt to start a Scottish colony in Panama in the late 1600s. But the expedition faced disease, death and poor trade, taking down the settlers -- and, ultimately, Scotland. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
