You then assemble the 2nd layer “modern” jigsaw map - which showcases the formation all 50 states in a time sequence based on each State’s date of established statehood. The third layer is constructed using the 4D Time Poster where 93 of the most famous US monuments & buildings are placed into the puzzle in the order that they were constructed.
The puzzle includes 93 plastic building replicas that depict the Country as far back as 1450 to modern day. The puzzle includes such iconic structures as Arches National Park, Mount Rushmore, and the St. Louis Arch.

review by Flanders Family Homelife
”The idea is that you would assemble this 4D map in stages. First, you’d put together the states – as they were claimed as territories, in historical order. Second, you’d finish each state as it became an official state with a different layer of foam puzzle. Next, you’d add in monuments and memorials in 4D fashion – in time order as well.”
