Hello, I am a student, I am wondering if you have any version for personal use, as I study history in my free time every day, and geacron isn't doing it for me.

How do I download the free version of Centennia Nations Edition? I do not see a link on the website. Thank you!
Sorry for the confusion, Cynthia! Any of the download links here will get you the free version, Centennia Nations Edition. Then later if you buy and enter an access code that will convert into the complete edition of the Centennia Historical Atlas. So there's just the one download ...

I see little mention of genealogy. Without Centennia (Millennia back in the 1990's) I don't know if I would have ever known to look for my northern Germany ancestors in the Scandinavian (Denmark) section of the genealogy library. My grandmother was born in Lublin. I assumed Poland, not Russia at the time. A very useful genealogy tool, thanks.
