You know how many of the Civilization games have a replay option at the end of a game session? I'd love for something like that on a world scale to really visually see what kind of events happened in history in parallel.

Thank you, that is pretty close to what I had in mind. An interactive timeline that could be explored step-by-step would probably be even better.

... maybe the Wikimedia Foundation should spend some of their ridiculous surplus in donations on developing that.
