I was thinking that it might be easier for members to search/ discuss for era specific topics I mean lets face it Everything from the start of humanity to 1900 is a pretty big gap. Let see here: Homoi Sapiens, Sumerians, Romans, Kinghts, Muhammad, Napoleon and the Industrial Revolution in one big forum?
Come on,
How about this
Pre Neotholic Forum- Point of divergences in the history of the earth all the way to Neolithic times (11,000 B.C)
Classical Era Forum- Everything from Netholic Times to the year 500
Medieval/ Renaissance Forum everything from 500 to 1600
Early Modern Forum Everything from 1600-1900
OR
We could just split the pre 1900 forum between pre and post 1600
OR
Some other type of split
