Nice, but would be nicer if it also showed the movement of Celts from Britain to Brittany, the locale of many Arthurian legends.

Hi, I like your animated map of Britain!

I noticed you listed my maps as one of your sources, thank you. And I wanted to make sure you are aware of another excellent source of British history, which is where I got much of the information for Britain in my maps.

www.EarlyBritishHistory.com. They've got several maps (with pretty much the same look as your maps) that cover every 25 or so years. The only major difference is that their maps are static, whereas yours is animated.

Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that I like your map.

Respectfully,

Oops, I just noticed you listed EBK as one of your sources. And I accidentally called it "Early British History".

Anyway, keep up the great work! Any chance you'll ever decide to do a similar map for the Roman Empire?
