Find answers to common questions and learn how to get the most out of your historical exploration.
Start by visiting the Timeline page from the main navigation. You'll see historical eras organized chronologically from Ancient to Modern times. Click on any era to see the major events that occurred during that period. Each event card shows key information and links to detailed pages with more context.
The Map page shows a visual representation of world regions. Click on any region (Europe, Asia, Africa, Americas, or Middle East) to see historical events that occurred there. This geographic view helps you understand how history unfolded across different parts of the world.
Each event page includes a comprehensive overview with the date, description, historical significance, key figures involved, and related events. You'll also find contextual information about the era and region where the event took place.
The 'What If?' panel appears on every event detail page. It uses AI to generate thoughtful analyses of alternative historical scenarios. Simply type your question or scenario and click 'Explore Scenario' to receive an AI-generated analysis.
You can ask any counterfactual history question related to the event. Examples include: What if this event never happened? What if the outcome was reversed? What if it happened 100 years earlier or later? What if a different person was involved?
The AI generates plausible alternative scenarios based on historical context, but these are speculative analyses meant to encourage critical thinking. They should be viewed as thought experiments rather than definitive historical claims.
