Neat Research Resource

[BiggusBeardus]

Hello!

When I'm world building, I like to research various time periods in our real world and see what happened when. Recently I came across this cool timeline web page and I thought someone here might find it useful.

Histography - Timeline of History

Histography is an interactive timeline that spans across 14 billion years of history, from the Big Bang to 2015

histography.io

Enjoy!

It looks neat, and a great place to waste time in.

Also nice if you want to get a feel for the order in which things happen. Not sure if it really helps with research all that much.

Yeah, I was using it mainly to compare when things happened and how much time passed between things. Definitely could be a time suck if you aren't careful.

Oh! This is pretty cool! I can already see hours of my life vanishing inside it.
