A time line is a graph that shows events in the order in which they take place.
A time line looks like a ruler. It is a straight line with evenly spaced intervals marked along it. On a time line, each mark represents a date.

83. Time Line
The date span on a time line depends on the information covered. It may be one day or several hundred years and it can cover general or specific topics.

84. Time Line
Dates are shown on a time line in proportional distance to one another. The years 1900 and 2000 will be twice as far apart on a time line as the years 1900 and 1950.

If a time line has to show events happening in two eras with nothing happening in the middle, you can break the time line. A gap in the line will show that a number of years has been omitted to save space.
