I thought this was pretty neat. Shows political borders & population figures of the top 20 for every year during the time period.
It's hard to pay attention to different areas, as they change so rapidly. It would be nice if there was a slow motion playback option..
The Mongol invasions, Napoleonic Wars, WWI and WWII stand out for massive changes in the blink of an eye. The Arab conquests would too, but the map doesn't focus on the southern or eastern Mediterranean shores.
