Represent epochs of human history on the timeline

This is how you create a timeline

A timeline, also known as a time table or timeline, is a graphic representation of time periods or a chronological sequence of events.

One centimeter can be two years, five, ten or 100. When depicting a very long period of time, it is helpful to break the timeline at suitable points with a double line so that it is not ten meters long at the end. A period shown on the timeline lasts, for example, 500 years, while all others only last 100 years last, you can interrupt the beam in this 500-year episode and extend it to the graphic length of 100 years collapse.
• The events are now entered above the timeline. If there is little space, you can let the font run from bottom to top. If you have a lot of space, the writing can take up the entire part of the timeline that encompasses the event. In this case, the events can be highlighted with different colors in order to create a better demarcation. In the case of overlapping events, it is best to make several lines across the timeline. Perhaps there is a reasonable subdivision for this, e.g. B. a regional.
