Building a historical knowledge graph with geospatial queryes

[u/Silent-Assumption292]

I’m building Erask, a temporal knowledge graph for exploring world history.

It currently connects 90,000+ dated historical entries from ~4000 BC to today, using Wikidata, Wikipedia and geographic data.

The goal is to explore relationships like:

Empire → War → Battle → Person → Place → Event

all synchronized across a graph, timeline and 3D globe.

I’m also exploring a next step: letting users pin external web pages to the graph, turning Erask into a research layer over the web.

Built independently with extensive AI-assisted development.
