Weekly Map 4 and 5

This map has a really nice interactive timeline. It has a button to enable looping, and you can just click wherever you want on the timeline to change the date displayed. It's also got a lot of options and information that's displayed very elegantly, which I like.

This map uses a shape tween.

I don't like it at all, and that's why I chose it.  There are over seven different shades of red being used alone, with even more neutral colors being used for non-Axis territory, and it's just a huge mess.  You can see in the upper-left corner where the maker edited his base map in what looks like paint, because whatever he used obviously didn't have a color-matching tool.
