To best appreciate the human endeavor, it should be represented by a cartoon showing the map of the world, which should cover the entire screen. Covered by a fine grid, the map would show the number of humans in each cell of the grid. Giving a second to each generation, it would make a century last four seconds and a millennium forty seconds. Ten millennia would last less than seven minutes, and the whole human endeavor would last a bit more than an hour. The cartoon would start in Africa, where a few cells of the grid would light up at first. It would be boring as hell at the beginning, but things would start getting interesting half way through, when humans would get out of Africa and move both east and west. This is where different colors should be introduced to show different races. Major civilizations would appear only in the last three minutes of the cartoon, but their explosion would be amazing to watch. Most important, it would be obvious that humans are now covering the entire map of the world. As well as that different races are increasingly mixed, at least in terms of their abode. It would not take much intelligence on the part of the viewers to realize that the human endeavor is reaching a crisis point. As well as that the sequel to the cartoon could not but end up going backwards.
