Brazil doesn't have any workers, we're all just very urban peasants. Very weird map. Turkey is somehow worse despite having such a long and well studied history.

Edit: Oh god the Native Lands layer in Brazil is actually horrible. Apparently nobody lived in all those lands with native names.

yeah that map definitely needs some work in a lot of areas, but I do like the concept of the project

Me too, tbh, but it's a bit of a "Great Taste;Awful Execution" right now. I think a better approach would be to do one for each country first, and actually bothering to invite historians from those countries, and then if possible joining those together. I've been reading Galeano's "Las Venas Abiertas de América Latina" lately and it would be cool to do timelines and maps of the events listed in broad histories like that one in easily digestible form.

Edit: For some reason I also forgot to look at the USSR region there, and it along with China just being that sparse is a really bad look for the map makers too.

yeah completely agree
