Canberra is the nation's capital, while the largest city is Sydney, and other major metropolitan areas include Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, and Adelaide [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australia ] Continental Creation ----------------------- Although the global ocean was formed when the Earth cooled to below 212 degrees Fahrenheit (perhaps 3.8 billion years ago) allowing the clouds of water to condense into rain, creating the seas, today's continents (as they are known today) are far newer. They were once clustered into a single supercontinent named Pangaea that existed ~225 million years ago at the close of the Paleozoic Era and the start of the Mesozoic Era. Global geography was not dominated by anything like Pangaea prior to this as the Earth's plates had (most likely) clumped up and moved apart before clumping up again--the cycle of clumping and reopening of oceans is called the Wilson Cycle. There are sadly only a few guesses about the continental layout prior to Pangaea because clues from earlier rocks are difficult to decipher--tectonic activity not only totally destroys oceanic crust, but it munches up the continental crust Gondwanaland is another clumping of continents (smaller than Pangaea) occurring at the end of the Mesozoic Era. When Pangaea broke up, the northern continents of North America and Eurasia became separated from the southern continents of Antarctica, India, South America, Australia and Africa. The large northern continent is called Laurasia and the southern continent is called Gondwanaland. Laurasia and Gondwanaland were separated by an ocean called Tethys that no longer exists today. The long direction of Tethys runs east-west rather than north-south like the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans today. That allowed ocean currents to flow all around the Earth in the east-west direction near the equator, causing the Earth's climate to be very different The Ancient Historical Places [ https://cdn.britannica.com/67/73167-050-B9A74092/chart.jpg ] The Paleozoic Era is the earliest part of the Phanerozoic Eon and is where life as we know if began. It was preceded by many ages, from the Hadean Eon (about 4.6 billion years ago--see the online chart?) and passing through the Archean and Proterozoic Eons (where the earliest life arrived), lasting from 541 to 252 million years ago; it is subdivided into six geologic periods: the Cambrian, Ordovician, Silurian, Devonian, Carboniferous, and Permian The Cambrian Period lasted 55.6 million years and is unique in its unusually high proportion of lagerstätte sedimentary deposits, sites of exceptional preservation where "soft" parts of organisms are preserved as well as their more resistant shells. As a result, our understanding of the Cambrian biology surpasses that of some later periods. It marked a profound change in all life on Earth; prior to the Cambrian, the majority of living organisms on the whole were small, unicellular and simple; the Precambrian Charnia being exceptional. Complex, multicellular organisms gradually became more common in the millions of years immediately preceding the Cambrian, but it was not until this period that mineralized—hence readily fossilized—organisms became common. The rapid diversification of life forms in the Cambrian (the Cambrian explosion) produced the first representatives of all modern animal phyla. Phylogenetic analysis has supported the view that during the Cambrian radiation, metazoa (animals) evolved monophyletically from a single common ancestor: flagellated colonial protists similar to modern choanoflagellates. Although diverse life forms prospered in the oceans, the land is thought to have been comparatively barren—with nothing more complex than a microbial soil crust and a few mollusks that emerged to browse on the microbial biofilm. Most of the continents were probably dry and rocky due to a lack of vegetation. Shallow seas flanked the margins of several continents created during the breakup of the supercontinent Pannonia. The seas were relatively warm, and polar ice was absent for much of the period [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_the_evolutionary_history_of_life ] [ https://donshave.website/djs-online-house/thoughts-of-past-things/history/ ] |

Algeria is Africa's largest country by area, and Nigeria is its largest by population. African nations cooperate through the establishment of the African Union, which is headquartered in Addis Ababa Africa straddles both the equator and the prime meridian making it the only continent in the world to be situated in all four cardinal hemispheres. It is the only continent to stretch from the northern temperate to southern temperate zones. The majority of the continent and its countries are in the Northern Hemisphere, with a substantial portion and number of countries in the Southern Hemisphere. Most of the continent lies in the tropics, except for a large part of Western Sahara, Algeria, Libya and Egypt, the northern tip of Mauritania, the entire territories of Morocco, Ceuta, Melilla and Tunisia which in turn are located above the tropic of Cancer, in the northern temperate zone. In the other extreme of the continent, southern Namibia, southern Botswana, great parts of South Africa, the entire territories of Lesotho and Eswatini and the southern tips of Mozambique and Madagascar are located below the tropic of Capricorn, in the southern temperate zone [ https://geology.com/world/cia-africa-map.shtml ] At about 30.3 million sq.km (11.7 million sq.mi) including adjacent islands, it covers 6% of Earth's total surface area and 20% of its land area. With 1.3 billion people as of 2018, it accounts for about 16% of the world's human population. Africa's population is the youngest amongst all the continents; the median age in 2012 was 19.7, when the worldwide median age was 30.4. Despite a wide range of natural resources, Africa is the least wealthy continent per capita, in part due to geographic impediments, legacies of European colonization in Africa and the Cold War, predatory/neo-colonialistic activities by Western nations and China, and undemocratic rule and deleterious policies. Despite this low concentration of wealth, recent economic expansion and the large and young population make Africa an important economic market in the broader global context [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Africa ] |

| Historical fact | before 043 | He See note for details; in PreRoman Wales (Britannia), EuropeG+, before 043 The area of Wales existed for thousands of year before the occupation by Rome in 43AD Not all of that time had seen continuous occupation, as icesheets moved across the north of Europe, but the hunter-gatherers of the Stone Age and the farmers of the Bronze and Iron Ages left a record for modern archaeologists to analyze For many decades, historians assumed that waves of population movement across Europe brought advances to this far-flung north-western corner of Europe but modern DNA studies have shown that technological and physical developments were rather slower Around 225,000 BC, homo sapiens hadn't yet infiltrated Europe, so the human tooth found in the River Elwy valley in North Wales from that time was from an early proto-human, maybe an early Neanderthal. Other, much later, Neanderthal remains have been found at Coygan Cave in Carmarthenshire. These date from about 50,000 BC. The famous 'Red Lady of Paviland' dates from about 26,500 BC and is believed to be the oldest ceremonial burial yet discovered in Europe, but just as a society with burial customs and personal decoration was getting going in Wales, a 6,000-year-long ice age took hold. Archaeologists now know that humans had recolonized Wales in 10,000 BC with a burial in Kendrick's Cave on the Great Orme near Llandudno. Again, this site has evidence of cultural complexity with the discovery of a geometrically-engraved horse's mandible The Mesolithic period of the Stone Age started in Wales at around 7,000 BC; pembrokeshire holds some of the greatest concentrations of Mesolithic material in the UK, but sites can be found across Wales; there are examples of art and decoration, plus wooden structures The Neolithic period from 4000 BC is conventionally the period of organized farming that superseded the hunter-gatherer society. It also marked significant population growth, and a recognizable burial culture. It the first archaeological era to be visible on the surface of the Welsh landscape: chambered tombs such as Bryn Celli Ddu and Barclodiad y Gawres in Anglesey erupt out of the grass. A more subtle effect of the Neolithic period is visible too. Farming necessitated extensive wood clearing, which affected the very look of Wales until the present day. The Neolithic period was an era still very much dependent on stone tools, but the technology was almost perfected. High-standard pottery was also present in Wales at this time. But the advent of metal-working made stone technology redundant From about 2,100 BC the bronze age saw copper seams in the Great Orme mined extensively. Amazing amounts of the metal were extracted from the hill, and made into bronze tools that found their way as far as northern Germany, pointing to the extensive trade links of Wales with the rest of Europe From about 1,250 BC a wetter climate led to much of the uplands of Wales becoming covered by unusable peat and population dispersal. Pressures may well have led to a move towards military defense of good land and the building of hillforts from about 800 BC Llyn Fawr in the Cynon Valley is the site of the discovery of the first iron implements found in Wales, from about 650 BC. Hill forts became more common with Castell Odo on the Lleyn Peninsular being the earliest [ https://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/history/sites/themes/periods/prehistoric01.shtml ] |

North of this was Caledonia, inhabited by the Picti, whose uprisings forced Rome's legions back to what was known as Hadrian's Wall. As Rome finally withdrew from Britain, Gaelic raiders called the Scoti began colonizing Western Scotland and Wales Prior to Roman times, prehistoric Scotland had entered the Neolithic Era about 4000 BC, the Bronze Age about 2000 BC, and the Iron Age around 700 BC [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Scotland ] |

They established the Kingdom of England; the modern English language owes almost half of its words - including the most common words of everyday speech - to their language The establishment of various Anglo-Saxon kingdoms in the 5th and 6th centuries (conventionally identified as seven kingdoms: Northumbria, Mercia, East Anglia, Essex, Kent, Sussex, and Wessex) and their Christianization during the 7th century changed in until 927 when it was united as the Kingdom of England by King Æthelstan…it became part of the short-lived North Sea Empire of Cnut the Great, a personal union between England, Denmark and Norway in the 11th century The threat of Viking invasions and Danish settlers, the gradual unification of England under the Wessex hegemony during the 9th and 10th centuries, ended with the Norman conquest of England by William the Conqueror at the Battle of Hastings in 1066 [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Anglo-Saxon_England ] |

They were Ulaid (in the north), Connacht (in the west), Laighin (in the southeast), Mumhan (in the south) and Mide (in the center of the country) [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Irish_kingdoms ] By the late 4th century Christianity had begun to gradually subsume or replace the earlier Celtic polytheism; a distinct Gaelic culture, with its own language, literature, and traditions flourished in Ireland Christianity was adopted there in the 5th century, and it became a major center for learning and monasticism |

The period notably includes the Hiberno-Scottish mission of Christianized Ireland to regions of pagan Britain and the spread of Irish cultural influence to Continental Europe Ireland (800–1169) -------------------- This period is from the first Viking raids to the Norman invasion The first two centuries of this period are characterized by Viking raids and the subsequent Norse settlements along the coast. Viking ports were established at Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Cork and Limerick, which became the first large towns in Ireland Ireland at that time consisted of many semi-independent túatha (see above) and during the entire period attempts were made by various factions to gain political control over the whole of the island. For the first two centuries of this period, this was mainly a rivalry between putative High Kings of Ireland from the northern and southern branches of the Uí Néill. The one who came closest to being de facto King over the whole of Ireland, however, was Brian Boru, the first high King in this period not belonging to the Uí Néill. Following Brian's death at the Battle of Clontarf in 1014, the political situation became more complex with rivalry for high kingship from several clans and dynasties Brian's descendants failed to maintain a unified throne, and regional squabbling over territory led indirectly to the invasion of the Norman's under Richard de Clare in 1169 Ireland (1169–1536) ---------------------- This period is from the arrival of the Cambro-Norman's to the reign of Henry II of England, who made his son, Prince John, the Lord of Ireland after the Anglo-Norman invasion was initiated in 1171. It marked the beginning of English influence and control over parts of Ireland. The Pale began then, where the English eventually established control over a small area around Dublin while the rest of Ireland remained largely independent After the Norman invasions of 1169 and 1171, Ireland was under an alternating level of control from Norman lords and the King of England Previously, Ireland had seen intermittent warfare between provincial kingdoms over the position of High King. This situation was transformed by intervention in these conflicts by Norman mercenaries and later the English crown. After their successful conquest of England, the Norman's turned their attention to Ireland, which was made as a Lordship of the King of England and much of its land was seized by Norman barons. With time, Hiberno-Norman rule shrank to a territory known as the Pale, stretching from Dublin to Dundalk The Hiberno-Norman lords elsewhere in the country became Gaelicised and integrated in Gaelic society [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ireland_in_the_Middle_Ages ] Poynings' Law (in 1494) ensured that the Irish parliament could not meet without the approval of the English monarch and Privy Council Ireland became a more-or-less independent country in 1534 with the Tudor conquest of Ireland |
