What is World History Explorer?

World History Explorer is an interactive globe-based educational app that teaches world history through Socratic conversations with AI-powered historical figures. Users spin a 3D globe, select regions, and explore historical periods through guided conversations with figures like Julius Caesar, Cleopatra, and Leonardo da Vinci. Conversations are powered by Claude AI, designed to ask questions that lead students to discover answers rather than simply providing them.
