Summary: <br> Here's episode 20 of the podcast, where we let you peek your head round our classroom doors here at History At Our House! <br> As anyone from the United States well knows, slavery can cause massive tensions and rifts in any state.

Greece had its own trouble with this (something students will see repeated in the Roman empire!). Although the slaves were "self-made" in a certain sense (they forfeited their and their family's freedom when they went bankrupt), it was still a cruel system, creating a lot of resentment - with tensions that came close to exploding! <br> Don't forget, if you're streaming via podbean, you can also subscribe via iTunes here and not miss any new episodes: <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/history-at-our-house-ancient/id457257170">http://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/history-at-our-house-ancient/id457257170</a> <br> <br>
