Think Connecticut is just a sleepy New York suburb with white picket fences and prep schools? Think again.
In this episode of The Topic Lens Podcast, we turn our European magnifying glass toward the US state of Connecticut. Following our deep dive into Belarus through an American lens, we are doing the exact opposite: analyzing a US state through European eyes. USA is a massive country where the differences between states can be as vast as those between sovereign European nations.
At roughly the geographical size of Northern Ireland (or half of Sicily) but packed with nearly 3.7 million residents, Connecticut is a compact, high-density powerhouse with four centuries of layered American history. Behind its quiet New England exterior lies a fascinating web of extreme socio-economic divides, deep European roots, and world-shaping industrial power.
🔥 What we cover in this episode:
Whether you are from Europe, the US, or anywhere else in the world, Connecticut has far more surprises in store than you might think!
