E13 – The Valiant – The History of Saqartvelo Georgia
Gamarjoba! Today we will be discussing the reign of Parsman (II) the Valiant (reigned 117-132). In this episode, we’ll go over how he became known as the Valiant, how he managed to make Hadrian very passive aggressive, and basically how Parsman might have been a zombie for a few years.
