Quizzes only facts on tour cards. First tour: WW1 ~7 min.
Thanks for helping us test OneWorld History.
I’m building a verified historical repository: questions asked, answers fact-checked and corroborated, then turned into a deep, searchable teaching database—in any language someone asks for—and low energy once it’s built, not a forever-burning chat.
From that base: classroom-ready ed tech—maps, sourced tours, AI images and video (labelled, always open to re-check)—filtered by age and difficulty so kids stay in safe bounds while still exploring real history.
This week’s featured tour is World War I, ahead of Remembrance Day in Canada and Veterans Day in the United States. Open the World War I featured tour →
Some tours include AI reconstruction images where no photograph or period artwork exists. They’re labelled and never presented as photos. Example: Loyalists and the War of 1812 slide—click the image, then More info.

I hope you enjoy the site.

A note on the borders. Maps follow a European political-map convention and are approximate. Indigenous territories often overlapped and were shared, and Indigenous nations did not disappear when these maps stop drawing them.
Residential schools. This layer marks places where children were taken from their families, for the years each site operated, with location precision shown per site. No photographs or records of deaths are shown. Support: National Indian Residential School Crisis Line, 1-866-925-4419 (24 hours).
AI-assisted, human-reviewed. OneWorld History text, charts and some images were drafted with AI tools and reviewed by people; sources are cited on each card and chart. It can still contain mistakes and is not a substitute for a textbook or a teacher.
