Lots of comments about my placement of Egypt, so let me respond: Geographically, Egypt is in Africa. However, from a cultural and genetic perspective, it is also very much a part of the Middle East. Although it had interactions with other parts of Africa throughout history, it also had lots of interactions with the Levant, Anatolia, and Mesopotamia. Therefore, for reasons of design and in order to more easily show several key interactions that occurred in ancient times, I placed Egypt next to the Middle Eastern civilizations rather than the Sub Saharan civilizations. In the video, I mistakenly summarized the horizontal sections as the Americas, Africa, Europe, Asia & the Pacific but it would have been more accurate to describe them as the Americas, Sub Saharan Africa, Europe, the MIDDLE EAST, Asia & the Pacific. In other words, I did not mean to insinuate that Egypt is a part of Europe! Finally and most importantly, please note that there are no geographical labels on the poster itself. While civilizations are generally shown from West to East, this is a history poster, not a geography poster, so it's not exact.

[@ladyjae09]

While the proximity cant be denied. The genetic and cultural can be. For so long history has written off Egypt as culturally and genetically different from the rest of Africa as to distance it from its African lineage. This has been a long standing position by Europeans, which is continuously adopted. I mean, one can easily refute by starting with a micro observation, stating the fact that humans walked out of African eons ago and continued to do so over millennia. Or that what we see phenotypically now in these regions, is not what was present during these periods. Of course it had interactions with Kush, its shared the same culture, they borrowed from each other, they are on the same continent. If that is the case, why not argue that Greek and Sicilian lineages are more closely related, genetically to Africans that their Europeans counterparts further north. In truth, this is not necessarily a critique of the good work you do, which I admire. However what I am refuting is a long standing position of European Anthropologist that have continued to forcibly remove Egypt from the African continent, this specific point in your color map helps to prop up this misrepresentation of history. But i do thank you for your reply and look forward to what you will do next.

[@OMProductions81]

This of course is the standard Eurocentric response which is understandable because you are obviously of European decent. I mean that as no insult just a statement of fact. We all tell history from our own perspective; unfortunately the Eurocentric view is too often written and promoted as if it is the sole authority on world history. I would never place Egypt, a term meaning "black land" anywhere else but in Africa, where it obviously exists to this day and is socially and culturally tied to the people of Africa. (Curiously enough, Europe is not even a continent, but we are taught that in every school book.) And of course we are told by Europeans that "black land" refers to the fertile soil and not the people. Again, when Europeans are telling the story any acknowledgement of the obvious presence of black people must be denoted as servants or mercenaries. Unfortunately many black people respond by labeling all Europeans as barbarian cave dwellers with poor hygiene and no culture. A tit for tat that serves no one. It would be nice to see a well-rounded telling of the story that gives full credit to all the nations involved and is not just a European cowboy movie. I will admit that I at least see you making the effort . A lot of similar charts don't mention Africa and the Americas at all. I hope you will continue to push the envelope in future charts.

[@jedgar63]

Africa/Europe, Asia, etc are modern labels. Egypt is part of Mediterranean culture. Ancient southern Europe, the Middle East, and northern Africa have a much more closely shared culture and history because they all border the Mediterranean Sea. They had no concept of being different continents, because they are unaware that other continents exist, or that the lower half of Africa and the upper half of Eurasia even existed.

[@tiafp]

they really need to start giving kids this chart in school, makes it so much easier to learn when you understand the context of everything. i think a lot of people struggle connecting the dots on all the things that were happening in different cultures at a given time in history. this makes it so much easier!

[@OhmVibe]

Agreed. I understood more about world history after watching this video than I ever did in school.

[@karenfitzpatrick6256]

Agreed. Along with the narrative could be very useful for middle schools to introduce them to how the World civilizations of today began, right at the age when they are able to understand! Good knowledge basis for kids before they come to the false belief that what they are experiencing in their own neighborhood is all there is..

[@Owais_kalyar]

I have never seen such a concise and exceptional explanation of history on any channel or website. Thank you for making such videos

[@jposco]

This chart is awesome! I am obsessed with World History, and your video did not disappoint.

[@user-ty4fu7fs6d]

Allows each of us perspective against our lives, hopefully pushing us to add to this amazing history. Thank you. Usefulcharts!

[@yamac2]

The ending really slapped. Thanks for putting so much effort into this.

[@space.404]

Oh I'm so in love with this

[@sunsetsuperior]

You seem really cool

[@twopeaksnorth8184]

Just got your book in the mail, such a great purchase! I am a museum studies student and these charts are gold.

[@vinitasheoran8908]

Hi. What book is this ? Would be keen to buy as well.

[@theditto69]

What a wonderful perspective, seeing things at such a high level and contextualizing events. Lots of shared patterns and wow, what emerged from cataclysmic events!

[@ericadrake4464]

Fabulous!!! Absolutely brilliant - everyone needs to know this incredible information! Bravo!!!

[@nlahunter]

This was a fantastic timeline to see and understand our history. You did a great job putting all these periods together.

[@millieblack2684]

Love this! So many history books jump around and never go in order. Great fundamentals.

[@thekitchenwizards]

This is fantastic. However, as an Irish person, it would be great to see our passage tombs, particularly Bru na Boinne, and Newgrange, the oldest standing structure on the planet, represented on the chart. It dates to around 3200bce - 2,900bce. It is often forgotten and it is hugely significant as a Stone Age site.

[@asndbpdsa]

Seconded!!

[@ashtondeas6154]

defiantly not the oldest standing structure in the world... by a long shot

[@AmyMossoff]

So glad to have found this video! A perfect companion to the chart. In history, it's so important to zoom in and learn the details, then zoom out and look at the big picture, and repeat. There are plenty of good quality videos for children about details, but few that help with the big picture. Thank you!

2020 ! I am starting my Empire now! you would soon find me in the chart

Absolutely fascinating and essential knowledge!

[@veronikabrozova]

Fantastic video and collosal effort on creating the chart! I am going to order it for sure.

[@Tallenn]

Wonderful chart! I wish I'd had something like this in high school, or even college. The way I remember world history, we'd study the Roman Empire in one semester, and far eastern history of around the same period in a whole other class. I was never able to see the timelines and how they coincided or contrasted until today. The picture is more clear for me now. Questions like "what was happening in China when Galileo was discovering the moons of Jupiter?" or "what was going on in America when the pyramids we being built? Are much easier to see now.

[@tejasasthana6951]

I can't even imagine the effort, time, and knowledge put together to make this chart. kudos!

[@elaineconnolly5945]

That was sooo good and informative, thank you!

[@HooMiiii]

Nice work, really appreciate the time and effort.

[@orktv4673]

Also I love the Covid-19 Pandemic at the very bottom. Hadn't noticed that before.

[@panchohalo2158]

@Omar B. Omar people say this every year

[@supermotherfuckingvillain]

@@panchohalo2158 but you can't deny 2020 has been the craziest year for a long time... The pandemic is worse than the great recession and 9/11. The last big global event is probably the cold war and the dissolution of USSR.

[@panchohalo2158]

@@supermotherfuckingvillain I honestly don't care for your opinion.

[@mangot589]

Pancho Halo But you like putting YOURS down, eh?

[@ninjiango9126]

Remember how 2020 started, Trump blew up a Iranian general who was trash talking him on social media, everyone was like WW3 starting, then Iran accidentally shoots down a commercial plane full of Iranians, and Trump was LOL. Feels like it was a lifetime ago, but it's only been a few months. Now the world is a meme with police around the world doing the coffin dance with dead people and blasting the coffin dance music to remind everyone to social distance.

[@IAmEmiliaM]

This was probably THE most interesting video I've ever seen! It was so easy to follow with the chart, I will buy it!

[@godfatherofcinema]

Just ordered the map. Thanks for taking the time to put this together and God Bless.

[@zahraissa8746]

This video is an absolute treasure. Thank you so much!!!!

[@mariannebrouillette4301]

I love this chart and I appreciate your time, energy and dedication to such an important subject. Thank you :)

[@nijoyjohn4366]

this is a pure masterclass, i mean pure gold dust the kind of work , planning and creativity put into it is just mesmerising. Hats off to the Creator

[@AswantKumar]

Thank you so much for the overview..now i could pick a timeline and a region for studying it with detail by correlating with events occurring in the similar time line in other parts of the world 🌎

[@chinavirus841]

Very lovely video I can clearly tell how intelligent you are from just the chart alone, keep at it

[@patrickjustine8246]

I wish I had found your channel months ago. Now I have to watch every single video you uploaded :) Keep up the excellent work!

[@martinegagne5326]

Love it and just purchased the chart! Wow! Amazing work! Thank you!
