Nice, the Indians and the Chinese are the only two "continuous" powers throughout those 4000 years. One is the most populous democratic nation, the other the most populous communist state.

I will spend hours with this.
Imagine the hundreds of hours that went into it.
I want a poster version for my son.

Can we get a log scale version please? Where there’s more space for recent times?

Yes, get one for yourself and your kiddo, Jon. What an excellent teaching tool.
It just looks cool, too. That alone makes it very engaging for students of any age.
I'm with Klaus on having it extended to include more recent years. Wouldn't that spark some debates.

I also like the map. Obviously some aspects of it are quite subjective, but it's nice to look at and invoke discussions.
I ordered a copy (from Romania, of all places).

I had seen that before. Love it. Great perspective.

Can you please share the URL for where one can order a copy? I searched the Internet a bit for this and only found websites that look suspicious. Thanks.

Reliable? No idea. I'm just hoping for the best. I ordered the version with frame.

I received my copy today.
A nice print on canvas. Rather expensive, though.
Now I need some kind of frame...

In my undergrad I remember making up chronology charts on rolls of graph paper for my Medieval and Renaissance history courses. As an exercise it was a great help with memory retention of dates and concurrent historical events.

Wow, way cool.
The USA is kinda small on that chart, isn't it?Hey Klaus, when you get it all nice, how about taking a picture so we can see how it looks.
I suppose it is made in China? That's not a dig, actually it would seem rather appropriate!
