China's clampdown on corruption, and other stories from Brazil, the Democratic Republic of China, the Golan Heights and Greece.

Fighting elephant poachers can a dangerous business in the Democratic Republic of Congo where part of who you're up against appears to be a neighbouring country's army. We travel on the ancient Via Egnatia that used to join two great empires. Though on the modern Greek version of the route, you don't get quite as far as you hope.
