How can GIS storytelling transform the way we visualize and share historical events or complex data?

The ability to use GIS storytelling is an aspect I have always found intriguing. Integrating narrative and maps gives life to all the information. It is amazing how adding data to maps is used not only to make the past more interesting but also to simplify the processes such as global warming or city expansion to every individual. Did you use any compared GIS storytelling tools that you found worth it? I am looking forward to your responses!
