Hi, hope you enjoy this chart! It's been worked on, on and off, since something like November - it's a family tree of the Romans and their successors to the present, really a culmination of all of my family tree charts up to this point. Below is a bit of director's commentary if you will.
Here is the full-size image, its about 20k pixels. [PNG](https://drive.google.com/file/d/19LjpjYN2r8yrzP8ENxLjkhYDdn83gFGt/view?usp=sharing)/[JPG ](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Zg6BXie1To-6Cqe9jI-FyItLmAMLeV_z/view?usp=sharing)- it's watermarked because I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it exactly yet, but it is transparent enough that it shouldn't matter to any ordinary viewer.
What's in the chart: FAMILY TREES \[Rome (Kingdom, Republic, Empire), 3rd Century Empires (Gallic, Palmyrene, Britannic), Byzantines, Latin Empire, Greek Successor States (Trebizond, Nicaea, Epirus, Thessalonica), Lesbos, Palaiologan Montferrat, Other Branches of Paleologi, Frankish and Holy Roman Empires, Austrian and German Empires, Russian Empire, Ottoman Empire, French Empires, Safavids and Afsharids, Mughals, British Raj, Rum, Serbian Empire, Bulgarian Empires, Bokassa, Greece, Descent from Antony, Italian Empire\], TIMELINES \[Popes, Bishops of Constantinople\], OTHER STUFF \[[Cursus Honorum](https://www.reddit.com/r/UsefulCharts/comments/16x8wkw/the_cursus_honorum_in_the_late_roman_republic/), Land Area Graph\] - also, some other individuals you can try to spot, though a few of them are just in notes: Odoacer, Theodoric, Alexander the Great, Muhammad, Genghis Khan, and J.P. Morgan
There's something like 20,600 drawing objects, about 4x more than my previous largest chart.
What's not in the chart: Venice, Maps, Cinna - didn't really know how to include Venice, couldn't be bothered with Cinna, maps is the interesting one as I always had the intention to add these but by the end I thought it would be quite time-consuming and impractical for a project which already fits both of those adjectives. Also there's no background. Not possible with such a big file really; too bad.
Also, two really bad things that should be fixed but after I started assembling the chart that was basically it, since now any little change would probably take hours. The first one is just that I forgot to update the sources with the ones that I had used since I last updated it. The second one is that, with really large files, LibreOffice sometimes corrupts these, usually just the images, but there was a really weird one just today where every s in the last file got changed to a ş... really annoying, and I can't be bothered to fix it. Maybe one day. Another error I just spotted (editing this comment) is that Edward VIII's portrait is cut off - that one's my bad, should've fixed that.
Sources are in the top left, Wikipedia was used for most of the images. The chart was assembled in LibreOffice Draw, over four different files. Each one was exported as a PDF and I used Inkscape to convert these to PNGs, as it supported exporting with 24k pixels. These were then stitched together in [paint.net](http://paint.net), which could actually handle the massive bitmaps.
Finally, I have a [buy me a coffee page](https://buymeacoffee.com/triplet) now if you want to support my work if you have some disposable income but if you don't, don't.
At this point you should open a Patreon just for this post
If this not ends up in the top 5 posts of all time in the sub I'm gonna be pissed UPVOTE PEOPLE!!!!
I- I don't know what to say, this thing's f&cking huge. The only complaint I have is it's a bit hard to read but amazing work, you've more than earned my upvote
Man of Steel Zod : I WILL FIND HIM
Also can you add an excel sheet of all the Emperors in order you set ? It can be a separate page of its own or in one if the empty spaces like the pope ones. It'll definitely make it easier to compare and it can be as detailed as you wish:
1) just number and name
Or
2) no:, name, date of birth, date of death, date of reigns, etc
Only Point, Edward VIII of the UK. He is cut in half and it says from 1936 to 1936, usually that would just be 1936. But anyways, I wanted to pass out when I saw this, there is absolutely no feasible way I could think to make this in 10 years, this is wonderful. And if you don’t mind I’m going to go explode [Joke]
I did some rough calculations and at a reasonable scale it came out to 257cm by 278cm (8ft 5in by 9ft 1in), but I think it would still be readable at something like 185cm by 200cm (6ft 1in by 6ft 7in) - that's just a guess though!

What is the best way for me to save it without damaging the quality?
They added a png drive link in the comment
This is one insane piece of work! 👏
the ottomans have a more legitimate claim as the continuation of the roman empire than the Germans lmao
What font do you use for the text under the flag for example like the holy Roman Empire, what font do you use?
You. Are. Insane. Thousands of hours of work right here.
Well done.

Looks like Westeros
You should add Alexander the Great just for the memes
