How these dates were made

Real dates from Wikidata, checked against the atlas.

These are real dates: Ilkhanate's founding and dissolution are recorded in Wikidata, and accepted here only because they agree with the centuries the atlas independently drew it in. The atlas itself draws the world at 2 moments in time, not continuously. The strip below covers those snapshots — 1279 CE to 1300 CE — which sits inside the fuller span above.
