Answer 2

Answer:

• Timelines are useful for charting historical events.
• Timelines are useful for identifying patterns in history.
• Timelines are useful for understanding what was happening around the world at different times.

Explanation:

A timeline is a visual representation (commonly a single line) of the events that have occurred throughout time in order.  

A timeline is helpful to identify how certain events (wars, revolutions, or technological advancements) shaped future ones, which events were concurrently happening in different places of the world, as well as tracing how conflicts or disputes evolved and concluded throughout the decades.
