Allow a moment for it to load. Use your mouse buttons to navigate. Clicking the play button top left will set off an animation :)
Many items are clickable, providing extra information.
Also available is the flat GIS which allows filtering for feature or company, and for various date sequences. This is also experimental. The map opens at -1882.
Again, allow a moment for it to load. Use the layer menu (top right) to select layers/years. The layers are complex, and may take time to load and swap out.
Bottom right button allows for change of the background. Clicking features will provide some information.
