I wonder if it's possible to create a graphically active map of the world (or continent) on which each distinct people is given its own color. It starts blank. Then as the decades and centuries roll on, the colors emerge and grow. They eventually diminish as they're infiltrated by a new color.

One of the main things I'd be interested in is watching displacements. I don't know, but I don't think there's a more common feature in mankind's history than people displacement.

What would be even more fascinating is seeing a long-extinct color suddenly reemerge in its original place on the map.

Israel did that. Are there or will there ever be any others? Will modern Iran ever revert to Persia?
