I would like to add a timeline to my family tree that details major historic events that took place during the lifetime of my ancestors. Is this possible with GenoPro?

Wrong forum...but, yes. Genopro automatically displays (in the online report) events during life. As far as I can remember (haven't looked at it for some time), it reports jobs, marriages, education, birth, death...and I think some more (I'd imaging more).

I guess, that she/he would like to show main historic events in the timeline, not necessarily linked to the family tree members, like the Titanic catastrophe, battle in the second ww, split of a country to two or so...

As per King Semsen's comment, this post belongs in the Suggestions, wish List & feature requests forum, not here in Announcement & forum rules, perhaps it can be moved by GenoPro.

The GenoPro Narrative Report makes use of a customised early version of the MIT Similie Timeline widget to display timelines of individuals and families.

 Unfortunately GenoPro has no way of recording generic events other than the few given by King Semsen plus occupancy, even for individuals, let alone world events. However with a bit of programming effort the Similie widget could be used to add world events, taking data from elsewhere, or stored within GenoPro in a contrived way such as using custom tags in a 'Social Entity's occupancies entries. 

An alternative simple approach would be to use labels, lines, arrows etc. on a separate genomap to illustrate the required timeline, with hyperlinks to the key individuals in the family tree.
