That is supremely cool. Easy to find the big powers and their relationships and contemporaries.

Amazing … thanks for sharing

Had to go digging for the source … the image came from here

Interesting because I was wondering when it was created … the article says it was 1931, which is why there are no descriptions or mentions of the Second World War and the after effects of that period.

It would be interesting to see how this would be drawn with an additional 90 years of history … it’s also humbling to think that our recent 90 years of history is that important over thousands of years.
