Chrology By: Ulrich Ndilira Rotam The background research for Chrology: Science of All Sciences, Unification of All Knowledge was conducted in a generalized way on several domains to understand if there is a single law that governs all sciences, all literary studies, our existence, and all our knowledge on different generalities in a single model. This research and study led Ulrich Ndilira Rotam to discover a simple and absolute law in its originality that governs the presence of all existence in the universe in a complex way according to the space, existence, time, and scalable factors. Not satisfied with the vision or the interpretation of the world with all our theories: big bang, strings, cosmic inflation, general relativities, quantum physics, our existence, Rotam saw that there was a lack of gigantic pieces that required a new shaping and vision, seeing in a different way all that surrounds us. He wanted to unify everything on one model. In other words, Chrology makes it possible to push the boundaries of innovations on all human disciplines, to see and understand how the whole universe appears to us in our small global world and all sciences, literatures are all united on one model with their limits... a completely new concept.
