What's so confusing about it? The genus has millions of years, although in the very beginning it was the same dumb apes so you can ignore that part. Neanderthals alone have a few hundred thousand years, add their predecessor and it's a few more. In case you don't know, Neanderthals and Sapiens fucked to make Europeans, Asians come from those two plus Denisovans, while Africans are much closer to Erectus (meaning they didn't need to evolve much to survive, relatively few changes were good enough) and didn't breed with Neanderthals or Denisovans.
Pic has a timeline in case your defective ape brain still can't get it. Note pics assume out of Africa. sage for being way off topic.
