OK, your suggestions are interesting, and I would like to respond to them.
First, according to the history of life on Earth and world history, the earliest stages of evolution and the development of life lasted the longest, covering immensely long periods of time compared to later eras. The same pattern can be seen in the history of civilizations and empires - their lifespans became progressively shorter over time. For this reason, the earliest illustrations in the VMS only signal the most significant events from these vast historical periods.
As time progresses, the increasing density of historical events means that each successive illustration covers a much shorter period. This does not mean that modern events are more important than earlier ones. Rather, it suggests that the manuscript's narrative becomes increasingly detailed as it approaches its culminating point.
The fact that certain illustrations appear while others do not, and the selection of the events they encode, is a decision made by the creators of the manuscript. I am not the one deciding which events are represented. My role is simply to interpret the illustrations and attempt to match them with specific historical events.
Not every event of great historical importance had to be represented directly. It is also possible that some historical processes were depicted symbolically or through events that were their consequences rather than through their most obvious manifestations. Therefore, the absence of an explicit illustration of events such as the discovery of America or the fall of the Roman Empire does not, by itself, mean that they are absent from the manuscript's narrative.
One thing, however, is clear: the precision of the narrative appears to increase as it approaches what seems to be its culminating point. If my interpretation is correct, that turning point is the decoding of the manuscript itself. It is a fact that people have tried to decipher it for centuries, but only now has the possibility of decoding it finally emerged.
It is also worth noting that my interpretation of the herbal (historical) section ends at folio 52v. Beyond that point, there are still additional folios in this section. The story does not end with the present day - there are more events to come.
The question is whether I know, or at least have an idea of, what those future folios represent. My answer is this: the farther I move beyond folio 52v, the less certain my interpretations become. Nevertheless, I believe I understand their overall message.
The narrative follows the same general pattern as the Bible. It begins in a manner comparable to the first book of the Old Testament, Genesis (folio 1r), and concludes in a way that corresponds, in my interpretation, to the final book of the New Testament - the Book of Revelation (folio 66v).
