How these dates were made

Real dates from Wikidata, checked against the atlas.

These are real dates: Visigothic Kingdom'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 — 600 CE to 700 CE — which sits inside the fuller span above.
