INVESTIGATE
THROUGH HISTORY

1. Click Expand to see the timeline in full view. Click Collapse when you want to return to the rest of the page.
2. Click Zoom In to explore a smaller date range and load more available events for that period. Give loading a moment to finish. Zooming in and exploring different periods can reveal more events to select; it does not change the historical records.
3. Go deeper into history with Back, or move forward with Next. Drag the timeline to explore nearby dates. Zoom Out shows a broader period; Begin and End move to the ends of the timeline.
4. For a specific period, choose the From and To dates, then click Apply. Use the date controls' Reset to restore the full date range.
5. Click an event's marker or title to open its details, sources and available media. Selecting an event returns you to its detail view; you can expand the timeline again to continue exploring.
6. Use Search and category filters to narrow your investigation. If results seem missing, check your dates and filters. The main Reset button clears search and filters.

The timeline loads in stages, so the events currently visible are not necessarily the entire collection. Available research tools depend on your membership.
