About this listen
For most of history, armies could not communicate in real time.Orders moved slower than events. Plans could not be corrected once battle began. Commanders learned to coordinate not through communication, but through doctrine, rehearsal, and tolerance for error.This interstitial examines how pre-radio armies engineered around delay, noise, and uncertainty—and how coordination became something they committed to in advance rather than managed in motion.
