Some nice history timelines in flash.

This site is some nice replacement of the boring timeliness i had to learn for history class. Here is one with the history middle east. Click on the title to see more flash maps.I also like the 90 second march of democracy

  2. I've made the map smaller. If you put the edit post function on the edit Html tab, you can see width and height tags in the code. Change these to the right proportions.

    Don't know about the history tag, maybe we should add it.

  3. Since the X-vs-Y label is being abused to it's fullest extend, ANY label would pass that question.

    Good post, I really like it when boring stuff gets visualized!

  4. I wouldn't call this boring stuff.

    But I do have the feeling it's focussing on the history of the Middle East.
    I mean, where is Napoleon? Hitler? Sovjet Union?

  5. The title says "Imperial History of the Middle East". Of course it focuses on the Middle East!

  6. Very cool! The "march of democracy" is also great.
