Documentation

1. Approach

Historygrapher transforms narrative history into structured data visualizations. Each event is a node. Each relationship is an edge. Each era is a cluster. The result is a navigable graph of human experience.

2. Data Model

Events are indexed by date, location, and thematic category. Connections between events are weighted by causal strength, temporal proximity, and geographic overlap. The resulting network reveals patterns invisible to linear narrative.

3. Visualization Methods

Timeline
Linear chronological representation with branching sub-events
Network
Force-directed graph showing causal and thematic connections
Flow
Directional diagrams showing cause-to-effect progression
