World History Timeline (21x30Inches)

Not easy to create this, but I believe this is the best of its kind. So valuable to see a visual like this, seeing all these events at one time. I laminated mine and put on the wall for reference. Perfect.

I can understand why some would not rate high, and others high. I am into the high category. My guess is, those who want to see timelines in context to a big picture will value it, use it to do further research. I a studying text books and teaching company courses, and continually stop to reference whether it shows up on this timeline. Often does not, but often does. What I like is one can go vertical and compared the timeline to all the other regions of the world at that time, see what was going everywhere. That was my goal and to that need, five star. Quality is exceptional, I do not worry about spilling coffee or food on it and though in a scroll format, I have learned how to make that an advantage by excluding portions not focused on. I find it amazing the creativity put into it, how the circles are drawn to show the scope of an empire for example expanding and collapsing and being influenced by invaders. I cannot imagine how one can gain a sense of history for 5000 years without this kind of depiction.

An exceptional map with an incredible amount of detail, presented in an easy to understand manner. Covers all continents, and includes historically important but often missed peoples such as Anasazi, Mogollon, Hohokam (misspelled as Hokokam in order to thwart copyright infringers), and Dacia. The Eastern world timeline is thorough and spot on. Truly an impressive product. No history classroom should be without one.

I have to say that I have never been a student of history. But, as I read more and follow my curiosity I wanted a way of getting a 50,000 foot view of how events fit together. This presentation of the data is wonderful. I gave it a 4 star rating instead of 5 star only because it should be twice the size it is. I probably missed seeing the size and I'm still glad I made the purchase, but larger would be better.The map displays what happened, when, the size of the areas correlates to the geographic area involved, there are vectors showing the flow of population migrations and migrations of events. I'm sure that if I thought about it and studied it more I could give you a better review, but it is a good tool and gives fair value for the money spent.

I purchased this to hang in my classroom as a good "in the grand scheme of things" reference, and I'm really happy with my purchase. You might like to hang a magnifying glass next to it so everyone can definitely read it. It's a good/accurate overall world history timeline, and it does have some detail, too. Lots of info. It arrived laminated and in perfect condition.

I am not sure if the creators of this map have been outside Europe or the UK, but it is an embarrassingly turn-of-the-century view of what is important and isn't. Woeful.But still, the only map we have of this kind...

This is my favorite poster. As a lifelong student of ancient history, it shows the breadth and depth of key milestones across time. I would love to see more on the earlier activities. The emergence of Lidar has revealed astonishing civilizations in South and Central America. Love this poster.

This timeline is exactly what I want in my Social Studies classroom! It shows history happening across the world at different paces, has important people and dates, and goes from prehistory to the modern world. It's secular and scientific and perfect for a public school classroom!!
