The Dancing Plague and Game of Thrones: Ethiopia Edition | A Wikipedia Clickhole

4 years ago
25

🖱In this casual Wikipedia clickhole, we'll start in the epic dancing plague of 1518 and wind up in some insane history in Ethiopia that reads like Game of Thrones. Along the way we'll also explore a laughter epidemic and discover a questionably named missionary group, before wrapping up in Gondar, Ethiopia's old capital.

Thanks to nnhk00 and XSVIN for starting point suggestions! nnhk00's suggestion of Human Interference Task Force advances to the next random picker round.
