Proposal to reorganize the article in terms of geographical location instead of chronological order[edit]

The current structure of the article doesn't make any sense. All non-western content are categorized under "ancient history" for some reason, even through it talks about events set in the medieval era and early modern era. I feel like the article would benefit from abandoning the era system all together and categorize things by geographic location. I envision something like:

East Asia
- Japan
- China
- Thailand
Western Word
- Classical Greece and Rome
- Medieval
- Renaissance

etc. etc.

I took the liberty to reorganized the article myself since I don't see anyone also coming. Region divisions are made loosely based on world regions according to world banks.

Notification of incomplete information[edit]

The entire paragraph under the heading "Late 19th century" does not appear to address the topic, it only contains a specific example without broader elaboration. A user better-versed in this topic than I may wish to elaborate on LGBT history in the late 19th century. Jpianop (talk) 22:23, 27 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
