In 1962, a military coup in Sana'a overthrew the newly crowned Imam al-Badr, ending over a thousand years of Zaidi imamate rule in Yemen. But the coup didn't stick — al-Badr escaped to the mountains, triggering a brutal eight-year civil war between royalists backed by Saudi Arabia and republicans supported by Egypt's Gamal Abdel Nasser. This episode follows the doomed reign of Imam Ahmad bin Yahya, the last strong Zaidi imam, and his son al-Badr's failed attempt to hold power. We explore the Free Officers movement, the role of Colonel Abdullah al-Sallal, and how the Cold War turned Yemen's highlands into a proxy battlefield. From Nasser's poison gas attacks to Saudi gold, from the siege of Sana'a to the 1970 reconciliation that finally ended the imamate, this is the story of how ancient tradition collided with modern revolution. #Yemen #ZaidiImamate #AhmadBinYahya #ImamAlBadr #AbdullahAlSallal #1962Coup #YemenCivilWar #GamalAbdelNasser #SaudiArabia #Egypt #FreeOfficers #SiegeOfSanaa #Royalists #Republicans #ColdWar #MiddleEastHistory #FexingoHistory #History Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
