How these dates were made

Real dates from Wikidata, checked against the atlas.

These are real dates: Koguryo'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 8 moments in time, not continuously. The strip below covers those snapshots — 1 BCE to 700 CE — which sits inside the fuller span above.
