Erasing World History in the name of World History
My hope was merely a reliable and objective source. This isn’t it.
Many glaring errors, (like major bodies of water, actual names of nations, etc., reveal that special blend of raw ignorance and cultural bias. Whose bias? Just look at the map and see if it doesn’t scream out at you the national perspective of the 5th rate brain(s) that cranked this out.
That presumes you, like me, let them sucker you into spending money on this. Ridiculous that they charge you for maps unworthy of grade schoolers.
Is it any wonder we live in a dangerous world beginning with the simple inability to correctly identify nations and features.

Very Low Res
The map looks terrible, especially zoomed in. If you expect to see Sumeria’s cities, look for a different map. For 5 bucks it isn’t bad. However your description regarding detail is highly misleading, earning you one star.
Some years are not correct
Can you add real history plss
Great idea, but...
... unfortunately close to useless for anyone with a halfway serious interest in history or geography.
Example: Africa, 1907. Most of Westafrica is just a huge lilac blob labled "French". Yes. Seriously. Clicking e.g. for further information somewhere around where French Guinea might be, gives you: "French. French Colony. 1904 to 1960." Clicking the huge pink blob that ought to be Cape Colony/South Africa, but only reads "British" results in the detailed information that this is "British. British Colony. 1806 to 1910)". Great. So I have finally found a map even more stupid than me about geography. Thanks.
I guess it is kind of amusing to skip forwards and see empires spread and shrink over time, but that is hardly worth spending 5,99Euros.
