Westerns

[A horizontal timeline spanning between the years 1840 and 2020. Every decade is indicated by a tick below the line, and labeled every 50 years. Two ranges are highlighted by brackets and labeled:]

[1862-1898:]

The “Wild West” era

[1902-2019:]

Western films, books, video games, etc

[Caption below the panel:]

It’s weird to realize that the Western genre has now existed for three times longer than the period it’s based on.
