FALL OF CIVILIZATIONS CHRONOLOGICAL
---------------------------------------------------------------------
I've had a few people ask me for a chronological order to the civilisations covered in the series so far. I decided to put this together in the form of a YouTube playlist.
So for anyone who's interested, here's a loose chronology of the show so far:

Obviously some of them overlap, so some of the medieval period placements are a little arbitrary - but I hope it gives some people a new way to think of the series.
Thanks as always to everyone for your support and enthusiasm about the show.
