That music's timing with the Hunnic and Mongol invasions was pure perfection.

Man, the Mongols just completely destroyed everyone all of a sudden.

I think this kind of animated maps is very interesting and does a good job at portraying complex history of borders. They tend to be not perfect but I'd say this is one of the better ones. What I don't understand about it is why some countries today remain "uncolored"/pale.

The population numbers are very interesting, as well. I'm not sure how accurate they are in reflecting certain historical events or if they're just interpolations. Some of those events were really dramatic, e. g. the plague epidemic in 14th century or population loss due to thirty year war. I think the numbers might not quite reflect those short-term events but I'm not sure.

I'd like to see one for the Americas, Olmecs to now.

The borders of the Low Countries are anachronistic. Not all of that in the northwest has always been land, and some lands still aren't.

Holy shit, England went from 4.1m in 1340 to 2.1m in 1400, only getting to the old level 200 years later. Black Death ain't fucking around.

I love how you can see Vandals move from present-day Germany to North Africa in the span of a hundred years. Visigoths, too.
