Where to find historical (country) data for Geolayers to draw maps?
I found this one but it seems to have only a few (very selected) years of data - https://github.com/aourednik/historical-basemaps

An App I made for Historic Borders throughout History (123,000 BC - 1994) - Updated Data [OC]
Please go help out at his repo https://github.com/aourednik/historical-basemaps

My lockdown side project: An interactive vintage map builder
Thanks for the compliments! The territory data is coming from https://github.com/aourednik/historical-basemaps, I use this data to render an SVG map with D3.js. This is pretty powerful since you can control every part of the rendering mechanism. With D3-geo you can easily do the projections and graticule.

I updated my app for visualizing country borders throughout history (2000 BC - 1994) with a globe view - historicborders.app/?view=globe
I found this repo with geojson data of historic country bounds and thought it would be cool to visualize it. The data is not mine.

Interactive map!
Please help me make these maps better! The data is at https://github.com/aourednik/historical-basemaps

The data is not mine. It is from here. I'm working on an editor for historians and who ever to work on visually updating this data right from in the app! so stay turned and hopefully all the data will be perfect in the future.

I made an interactive map of country borders through out history. historicborders.vercel.app
Kinda. I'm using mapbox to overlay geojson from a source

My lockdown side project: An interactive vintage map builder
For the cities, I used the data from this paper. The rivers are pretty standard and the mountains are taken from this Github project. The sea labels are custom made by me through QGIS, I open-sourced the data.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing historical-basemaps and sea-labels you can also consider the following projects:
world-geojson - GeoJson for all the countries, areas (regions) and some states.
d3-geo - Geographic projections, spherical shapes and spherical trigonometry.
historic-country-borders-app - Visualize country borders from different times in history (2000 BC-1994)
polylabel - A fast algorithm for finding the pole of inaccessibility of a polygon (in JavaScript and C++)
open-source-exandria - A repository for fans of Critical Role to contribute to the data behind the interactive fantasy map for the show or copy it and make your own maps!
data
UltraGlobe - A globe in threejs with OGC WMS imagery, OGC 3dtiles and elevation
geolib - Zero dependency library to provide some basic geo functions
AzureMapsCodeSamples - A set of code samples for the Azure Maps web control.
opensphere - OpenSphere
php-geo-svg - Generate and display maps without external services or compromising on privacy.
