Map of Europe changes over a millenium (or more?)

[Caballo]

I thought this video was great. Some inaccuracies, but fun.

Blocked by the company FP. Will check it out when I get home!

That was really cool. I've always wanted to make something like that showing the rise of Rome.

Some inded. Some glaring, but nice to look at. It pays to look at it more than once, some changes are so fast you can't see them properly.

It would have been nice to have a date counter installed on the graphic. But interesting nevertheless.

Now who's going to make one that runs from 500BC to AD1000?

[Manius Acilius Italicus]

I really wanted to see the video, but for some reason I didn't have anything on the site to open it up. I tried everything there. Any help would be appreciated.

It looks like someone has also posted it on YouTube. Perhaps you can see it there?

Excellent! And amazing that there was a bit of the Empire all those years into the Renaissance. And then the Ottomans, but that's a stretch.
