Conspiracy Theory: The Dark Ages Never Happened!!!
As of this composition, it is 2020. Be that as it may, imagine a scenario in which the year was ACTUALLY 1722. Consider the possibility that several years prior there was a connivance by a couple of European aristocrats to change the advanced schedule.
