Nice find.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

Did the United States have as much relative power in 1931 as the British Empire? Seems suspect.

No Assyrians. "Iranians" in 2000 BC. History used to be retarded. Oops wait no I found them.

The Persians keep popping up. Their civilization gets swamped but always reappears. Interesting.TheReal_ND wrote:No Assyrians. "Iranians" in 2000 BC. History used to be retarded. Oops wait no I found them.

Re: The Histomap - 1931
1930 was around the time they started making huge breakthroughs in translating Assyrian tablets. They most likely had a malformed idea of what was going on back then. I'm not expert enough to really quibble with the map too much but a lot of it looks suspect.

The run of Egypt is impressive but the run of Rome from 753 BC until 1453 AD is insane.

Assyrian is actually better. They had close to 2k years.

Should be a big chunk on the top half for native Americans, I think. Aztecs too.
