About WarAtlas

WarAtlas is two things: an interactive historical battle map covering 14,735 real battles from 3000 BC to today, and a daily battle-guessing game inspired by Wordle and GeoGuessr.

The atlas

An interactive world map with 14,735 battles, a timeline scrubber from 3000 BC to 2024, animated troop movements, and guided tours through major wars.

The daily game

Every player gets the same 3 battles each day. Pin the world map to guess where each happened. Distance-based scoring, daily streaks, spoiler-free emoji sharing.
