The Mapping History site (from the University of Oregon and Universitat Munster) has dozens of static and animated maps illustrating US, European and Latin American history. Examples include “Cotton Production In The South: 1790-1860″; “Peasant Rebellions In Early Modern Europe”; and changes in the political status of South American countries. Some of the animated maps are slider-based (with a play button), and it’s obvious how they work. For other Flash-based maps, you’ll have to click on the map and select “Start” to begin the animation, and select “Key” to bring up the map legend.
