This is an animation of the colonial history of our world, stretching from 1450 to 1920. Each colour represents a different empire. For more great history time lapses, you can visit my friend's youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6gNjP1W4FXWExT5QpYkmhQ I made this project as an exclusive remake of his work. He was fine with me doing that.
I thank my friend completely for this, as he painfully drew up each territory from a black world map on MS Paint. I myself am not really into history much, but I must say, I find this fascinating.
