Timeline Project: Ancient Civilizations to Postmodernism

This project presents a comprehensive history timeline covering multiple eras and civilizations. It begins with the Timeline of Ancient Greece (800 BCE–146 CE), detailing significant events such as the Olympic Games, wars, and the Roman conquest. It then moves on to the Timeline of Ancient Christianity (44 BCE-327 CE), covering the life of Jesus, the growth of early Christianity, and the reign of Constantine. The Timeline of Ancient Hinduism (700 BCE-1122 CE) highlights the development of religious texts and temples. The project also includes the Timeline of Late Middle Ages (1000 CE-1500 CE), covering the feudal system, crusades, and the Black Death. The Timeline of Renaissance (1300-1600) and the Timeline of Spanish Colonization of Peru (1100 CE-1535 CE) are explored, followed by the Timeline of Counter Reformation (1517-1685), the Timeline of Romanticism (1798-1852), and the Timeline of Slave trade in Africa (1441-1888). The project concludes with timelines of Realism (1837–1901), Modernism (1902–1945), and Postmodernism (1946 - Present), showcasing the major events and transformations that shaped the world. The project uses multiple sources to provide a well-rounded perspective on these historical periods.
