0:00 4:18:55

Scattered across the Atlantic Ocean, Cape Verde is a remote island nation with a history shaped by exploration, trade, migration, drought, and centuries of cultural mixing. Its volcanic landscapes and beautiful coastlines hide stories of Portuguese voyages, Atlantic trade routes, island communities, and the remarkable culture that developed far from the mainland.

Tonight, we journey through the history of Cape Verde โ€” from its discovery and early settlements to the people, traditions, and events that shaped this unusual Atlantic crossroads. A calm journey through forgotten islands, ocean voyages, colonial history, and a fascinating culture formed at the meeting point of different worlds.

Boring History for Sleep โ€” Soft stories about the places history forgot.
