There seems to be a huge time desync, just watch the 20th century (around WW2 is specially glaring)

  Not just a sync problem, as WWII starts at the right time but ends at the wrong time. And it happens for other earlier events too, it's just temporally inaccurate.

    The Allied powers occupied Germany until 1949, so still off, but not as much as you'd think.

      The animation shows Germany occupying large parts of Europe until 1955, so it's off by ten years. Ten years too long is what I call "a large error", for an event that lasted 6 years. Off by 150%.

        Yup, that's the glaring thing I also saw without paying much attention. Also thought I'd be seeing a huge "Spain" in the late 1500 - early 1600s, since if it applied to the Spain-Portugal affair, it should also to the rise of Phillip II. Anyway, ignoring the errors or misplacements it was interesting to see, which is almost good enough :)
