By Decade

This dimension groups historical events by the specific year in which they occurred. Wikipedia notes that historians rely on "primary and secondary sources to reconstruct past events and validate interpretations," evidence that in most cases pins an event to one specific year. Browsing by event year lets a visitor compare events that happened at the same time.
