Tools (3)
🟢world_at_year(year, bbox)
List the states, empires and cultures whose borders are on the map in a given year (OpenHistoricalMap data), optionally only those overlapping a region.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"year": {
"type": "integer",
"description": "Year. Negative is BC: -500 = 500 BC. There is no year 0."
},
"bbox": {
"type": "array",
"items": {
"type": "number"
},
"minItems": 4,
"maxItems": 4,
"description": "Bounding box [west, south, east, north] in degrees."
}
},
"required": [
"year"
]
}🟢find_polity(query)
Look up a state or empire by name or any of its Wikidata labels and aliases (substring, case-insensitive), or by Wikidata QID. Returns its lifespan, every border snapshot with its bounding box, and links.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"query": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Name, e.g. \"Ottoman\", or a QID, e.g. \"Q12560\"."

Search dated map events: battles (Wikidata), UCDP armed-conflict events since 1989, volcanic eruptions VEI 4+ (Smithsonian GVP), significant earthquakes (NOAA), witnessed meteorite falls, and UNESCO World Heritage sites (undated). Results are sorted by year.
