Participants

This dimension names the people, groups or nations that took part in a historical event. Wikipedia notes that historiography is studied by topic, citing examples such as "the historiography of the United Kingdom, of WWII, of the pre-Columbian Americas," topics that are always defined by who was actually involved. Browsing this way collects every event that shares the same participant.
