Point in History: Explore historical boundaries around a given location
- Fatnino 4y agoNeat idea but the underlying data could use some improvement. For example, the borders after Israel's several wars. Or anything to do with the world wars. Also, lacks anything about the Russian empire's adventure into Alaska and down the coast almost to San Francisco.
- danuker 4y agoI am from Romania. It's interesting how historical boundaries reflect the Carpathians splitting our country in half. As a person regularly crossing them, it does indeed feel they are different. I think Muntenia is warmer socially (large family gatherings), but Transylvania is more economically developed (in fact, rent per square meter is highest in Cluj-Napoca, not the capital București).
- leobg 4y agoAwesome. Will use that with my 5-year-old, who loves maps.
