The map is interesting. I was a bit confused which one was the main route though. Is it, starting from Xian China, go west skirting the Gobi desert, then choose a mountain pass either north or south of Tajikistan, pass through modern day Iran, and finally to Constantinople?

This. Is. Awesome!
About a month ago, I was telling my wife that I wish there was an app that had this type of feature! KUDOS to you! Thanks for sharing!

This is sick. A lot of history stuff gets buried under walls of text, but putting it on a map makes the scale and movement click instantly.

I thought for a second this was going to be an archival infographic of the dark web.
