I was a bit sceptical about this purchase before buying it but I so thankful I did! This is an awesome download, superbly put together with alot of different views, great to see in timelines with a huge amount of informative jump-offs. Highly recommend.

I really admire the way you’ve organized and presented this work. I can only imagine the countless discussions, revisions, and careful decisions that went into making it so accessible and meaningful for your audience.

These days, my learning is driven by the joy of becoming less ignorant of history — doing better in the history sections of quizzes, and diving deeper when something sparks my interest. My daughters, both in high school and heading toward college, have helped bring history into sharper focus at home. One is deeply fascinated by the history of wars, and the other is a walking encyclopedia on Greek mythology, with a growing love for the stories and cultures of the world.

So for me, this subject is alive and all around me. I’m truly delighted to have found your work and to have downloaded the full catalog now. It adds rich context to how I think, learn, and engage in conversation.

And beyond history, I was pleasantly surprised to see the inclusion of literature, mathematics, languages, and sciences. It all makes perfect sense as part of a broader understanding and context.

Thank you — I deeply appreciate your work and your dedication as I recommend to others.

Early days yet - it'll take weeks to take it all in - but I'm very impressed so far. Its great value is in putting world events into perspective relative to one another.

If you don't have Microsoft Excel, you won't be able to use this timeline. I've tried to open it in Google Sheets, but it does not work, which is a real shame, since my work computer (I'm a Social Studies teacher) does not have Excel, so I'm not sure I'll be able to use this at all in my classes. I do have another computer that I can open it on, but it would be so much better if this was configured to be able to use it with Google Sheets.

The information itself is great, and it is clear that many, many hours of work have gone into this timeline - I just with I could use it in my classes, which is the reason I bought it in the first place. At the very least, prospective buyers should be warned that they need Excel to use this timeline.

Update: The creator(s) of the timeline do in fact warn that it works best on Excel and they also suggest a free version of a spreadsheet. The creators also warn that functionality is severely diminished if you try to use this timeline in Google Sheets - as I found out.

But ... now I have already used the timeline in my classes and I'm enjoying it immensely. Great work, World History Timeline!

Love it. As a history buff I find it fun just to explore. Also, I find it interesting to relate one thing happening in one part of the world as it relates to another place in the world. Fun to share with friends exploring areas of their interest, be it religion, science, or the history of their family origins

I would like to see a chart on the history of Humans s, maybe just during the late Pleistocene, likely around 15,000 to 20,000 years ago to 1492. That’s a long chart, maybe too long but your formate might work perfect. It’s too bad the columns can’t be organized logarithmically

I'm no historian. But I do love reading analyses of major historical events and figures and thinking about the connections and turning points that cross time and geographies. This massive (and I mean MASSIVE) timeline is a history visualization tool that makes it significantly more efficient to see those connections. And this tool is fun to play around with even when I'm just watching "ROME" or "Spartacus Blood and Sand." The added context makes the experience of watching these shows that much more fun. "No, I'm not wasting time by watching these shows for a fourth time. It's educational."

Imagine reading Voltaire, wondering why he seemed to be so focused on freedom of thought and speech, and then checking to see who the rulers in France/England were and then researching their policies and then a bit later you see Newton and Locke and are reminded that they played a role in developing Voltaire's arguments so you research them a bit too. After many bottom-less rabbit holes, you start to get a picture of what Voltaire was up against and from where and who he got his ammunition. The connection between these three great thinkers is no secret, but their proximity on the timeline does help make that connection tangible. The point is this is a tool that builds and rewards curiosity.

I like to think that I would have eventually started to build my own version of this if this didn't exist, but I don't think a novice historian could have covered the breadth of this masterpiece. It's not just a matter of knowledge or passion. You do not have the time to build this from scratch.

Every history classroom needs a license to this tool.

That the files are open and editable so I can add whatever additional events and details is the cherry on top.

I have just started, but, BOY, is this amazing! I can barely start one article but I'm off to another. DEFINITELY worth the price if you are a history buff!!

Wanted something to assist in my travels with convenient access to how history intersects and affect other regions. This product does just this in a mobile app.

A great resource. Huge effort to put this together. Kudos.

"It’s brilliant- a phenomenal piece of work that allows me to easily compare slices of history around the world- and it’s editable so I can personalise it. Well worth the price."

This piece of work is a Very comprehensive timeline with extensive features and is a worthy addition to any bible studiers library. Well worth the money

What an awesome and incredible achievement. Being able to see and compare various timelines and the events that occurred around the world in unbelievably revealing. It’s difficult to stop scrolling through and getting new insights. Perhaps best of all is its open architecture which allows you to put your own families timeline and important events into the spreadsheet. So much fun to see which US Presidents were running the country when my great, great grandfather was alive. I absolutely LOVE this program. It’s worth 10X what it costs.

This is just the perfect thing I needed to accompany my Family Tree. I've researched my biological family back quite a way back, so this is going to help me finding out just how many people I'm actually related to. I also have some UsefulCharts and along with this timeline, it's just perfect. Thank you, you've made my life just a little bit easier.

The World History Timeline is an incredible amount of information that is thoughtfully organised in a manner that makes accessing specific pieces of information easy to find. Or if you just want to browse and compare the state of China as compared to ancient Rome, that's easy, too.
I now keep the WHT open and in the background while I read a history text, so I can have a bit of context. A real-life example: I was reading "The Annals of Imperial Rome" (whose chapters are grouped by years) and I needed a refresher in the order of Roman Emperors. Within a matter of seconds, I had all the info I needed and then more if I wanted to delve deeper.
This much be a work of love that has grown into a professional, slick package.
Thank you for putting this together!!

The amount of information in World History Timeline is amazing. I no longer have to visualize in my head or reference multiple sources to place historical events in order. If you love history as a hobby or you are a serious historical researcher this spreadsheet is a must.
