Since history class was for sleeping, CH gives you a quick refresher by GMapping nearly every documented world conflict/war all the way back to 3000 BC. Set a date span by moving the slidebar timeline, then click any marker to get a brief summary of events, often illuminating obscure-yet-interesting incidents, from an 1874 clash between disputing Arkansas Republicans that left nearly 200 dead, to more recent episodes, i.e., when the US military accidentally left 6 nuclear warheads on a bomber flying around the Midwest in 2007, coming this close to blowing up a bunch of corn.
