I am writing my family history in a time line form, and I would like to introduce each year with a paragraph on world and Canada conditions. For example, 1918 was the end of WW I and a great flu epidemic spread across many countries.

It seems that all my Internet searches do not provide what I am seeking. Many sites are heavily weighted with USA history and many others simply list famous deaths and births.
One site [mid 1800] lists over a hundred battles in the world. Many others do not mention Canada. 

Has anyone on this listserve attempted a similar endeavour ? 

I would appreciate any suggestions or URL sites that may help me.
