The South Sea Bubble. Part 2

The South Sea Bubble of 1720 was one of the first major financial crashes in history. It a story that mixes avarice, corruption, deceit and vast sums of other peoples money all topped off with political infighting and an unpopular monarch.

In this second part the bubble bursts in both London and Paris, but for different reasons.  And Robert Walpole takes advantage of the chaos to take revenge and emerge as the Prime Minister.
