🌍 Globstory (OpenHistoricalMap -Wikipedia Integration)

[edit]

Globstory is a user script that allows you to have OpenHistoricalMap near you Wikipedia article and have the map update in a dynamic way.

Overing your mouse on a year, or on a geographic place, will update the map.

How it works

[edit]

Once activated the script (see the steps below), over your mouse on the bold words/years in the following text, and see the map update in years and space.

On the other articles words will not be bold, just over your cursor mouse for more that one second on a place/year and the map will update.

World War II began in Europe on 1 September 1939 with the German invasion of Poland and the United Kingdom and France's declaration of war on Germany two days later on 3 September 1939. Dates for the beginning of the Pacific War include the start of the Second Sino-Japanese War on 7 July 1937, or the earlier Japanese invasion of Manchuria, on 19 September 1931. (source)
