[edit] The 20th Century
Of all the centuries that have passed since the Lord Jesus walked amongst us, this one was the Twentieth.
- Early Controversy - Planning for the Twentieth Century began when the Next Century Convention was convened in Detroit, Sweden in 1895. Whilst most of the delegates favoured the name "The Twentieth Century", the French delegation thought it should be called "Le Siècle Français". and walked out when their demands were not met. Annoyed by this, the Convention's "War Planning Subcommittee" voted to make "France" the loser in every 20th Century war. Another determined constitutency wanted the Twentieth Century to "belong to Canada". Hah!
- The Dawn of the Century - The Twentieth Century was scheduled to begin on January 1st, 1901. However, due to poor planning and budgetary constraints the century did not begin until October 9th, 1902. Everyone was annoyed by this, but soon the airplane was invented, and that cheered them up. Have you ever seen that old film of crappy early planes? Man, that's funny, particularly that one with twenty wings that falls to pieces on the runway.
- World War I - Following the assassination of British Prime Minister Herbert Asquith at the hands of an Irish gunman, the British threatened to invade Ireland. Norway, viewing itself as the traditional protector of the Irish people declared war, bringing it's allies Luxembourg and Croatia into the fight. The British called upon their allies, the USSR, Germany and Latveria to join the frey. Soon all of Europe was at war, except for Switzerland, the smug bastards.
- Russian Revolution - Weary of living under the Soviets, Stalin started the Russian Revolution to free the Russians from the Russian yolk. The Russians fought back hard, and soon all of Europe was at war, especially Switzerland. Meanwhile in Amerika, the cotton gin was invented by George Washington Carverand the people rejoiced.
- The Influenza Epidemic - Millions were killed by this, but it's still boring. Recently CDC sceintists re-created the 1918 flu virus, which was totally a good idea. The world rejoiced.
- The Canadian Civil War - With the world still reeling from war, revolution, inclement weather and "The Disease", The People's Republic of Canada was cleft in twain by a bloody civil war between those who were very polite, and those who were merely quite polite. The quite polite faction was eventually defeated and put to forced labour in the syrup mines.
- The Great Depression - With the world still reeling from all of the above, the Stock Market Crashed in 1929. Everyone became poor and hungry and played folk music on harmonicas and stuff. It was truly bliss.
- The Rise of Fascism - Is it just me, or was the Twentieth Century a bit of a bummer?
- World War II - No, it's not just me.
- The Cold War - Now we're talking! Some people say the Cold War wasn't any good, but it gave us James Bond, The Man From UNCLE, Our Man Flint and Nick Fury, Agent of SHIELD, so it wasn't all bad, except for the invention of the Cold flu, which was an introduced into the general populace by Ralfinsick Barnliker as a solution to all of those countries fighting amongst themselves for cooler temperatures.
- The Fall of the Soviet Union - In the Soviet Union, you fall on collapsing governments! With the cold war over, Amerika had no cool enemies any more, and so had to make South Africans the bad guys in Lethal Weapon II. However things got better for the Russians, who were now free from domination by KGB agents. See also Vladimir Putin.
- The Rest of It - Al Gore invented the Internet. Also there was Led Zeppelin, but they came earlier. Apart from that, it was all shit.
“It's all SHIT!!!”

[edit] 1900
If you wanted to be hip back then, you would have to be from the 1990's. Otherwise, you would be a loser. Other euphemisms for this is "You would suck", "you wouldn't be part of the team", "You wouldn't be part of the team, you loser" and "You're so boule, I feel like taking a wizz on your head".
Back then, people were special. The music didn't suck and Presidents didn't lie so much. The 1990's can still come back to you. You just need to have faith. Here's some of the things you could do:
- You could worship Satan. It was popular back then........ in the 1990's
- You could listen to the same rock tunes (which are still being played today) and pretend like it's something totally new.
- You could bring me some taco bell, you moronic asshole. Don't you want to be part of us? Well, start by moving your silly ass and bring me some food. And easy on the pepper sauce!
- You could write an article about how the Y2K is going to be the end of the world and how everyone should start making backups before their computers are erased and all their valuable data is missed...... only to realize it was all a big, compact, full load of CRAP.

[edit] 1904
[edit] 1904: The Year Without A Soul
In 1904, roughly a hundred plagues where visited upon Europe, due to the Santa Clause in France's constitution.
[edit] The Santa Clause
In 1900, the French people passed the Santa Clause to their constitution. It said in a hundred pages what Americans have known for a hundred years: the modern system of French warfare, in which all French soldiers are equipped with a single white flag and surrender upon sight of an enemy. For four years Satan raged at the way his name was destroyed by the French people. In 1904, God let him have his revenge.
[edit] The Souless Year
When January 1st, 1904 rolled around in France, the world got its first taste of what was to come. All people who lived in Paris were visited with a preview of the 1918 version of the flu. The next notable incident happened on February 14th, when all European manufacturers of Valentines cards suddenly exploded, with the force of thirty very large hydrogen bombs each. Minor aches and pains flooded Europe for the rest of the year, until Christmas when the next notable plague struck, which caused all Europeans to suffer a very bad case of cholera.
[edit] The Return of God
Having come back from his year long vacation New Year's Day, 1905, God reversed the lingering curses on the condition that the Santa Clause be done away with. Though the French people did as they were told, they didn't change their style of warfare, so God let Satan have one more piece of vengeance: Satan chose his antichrist and nutured his evil side. The name of this man is not known.

- Norway divorces Sweden, moves back in with mother.
- Canada annexes the North Pole. When Santa's Elves commence guerrilla warfare, their Canadian oppressors have them forcibly relocated to Newfoundland. This is thought to be the origin of the phrases 'as bitter as a Newfoundland Elf' and 'whoa, momma, where's the pancakes?'
- Mars establishes the Welcome Our Martian Overlords Party in attempt to take over Earth peacefully. They lose many elections.
[edit] War
- The Russian Fleet arrives in the Sea of Japan after eight months travel from the Baltic Sea. They are defeated by the Japanese Navy in under two hours. This actually happened, but I still think it's funny.
- The Potemkin Mutiny. Fearing that the Russian fleet might not be crap enough already, the crew of the Potemkin mutiny in Odessa. Due to the low production values of the mutineers, the mutiny is all in black and white and has no soundtrack.
- The British build the HMS Dreadnought, a gigantic battleship with huge guns. 'We are not compensating for anything,' declares King Edward VII, 'Actually, the guns on this ship are tiny compared to my royal sceptre, if you know what I mean.'
- The Germans start building U-boats. 'At least our phallic symbols actually look sort of like penises,' says Kaiser Wilhelm, 'If your willy looks like a battleship, you've got troubles.'
- A short-lived, but bloody war (The Kitten War) between Venezuela and Spain ends after both sides run out of kittens to use as ammunition in their cannons. Historians estimate that between 450'000 and 2'000'000 people were killed.

- London discovered by Sir Arthur Piccadilly-Circus. His discovery is disputed by Lord Heathrow-Airport.
- Count Zeppelin invents his biggest Zeppelin yet. 'Eat it, King Edward VII and Kaiser Wilhelm II.' ~~ Count von Zeppelin
- Led Zeppelin sues Count Zeppelin
- The Interlingua language is developed and continued to be spoken by all three people worldwide.
- Mathematician Cauchy proves without a shadow of a doubt that it was him who invented Personal Space, and not Big Norman.
[edit] Music
- Thomas Edison invents the electric flugelhorn.
- Nikola Tesla invents the hydraulic violin.
- Not to be outdone, George Washington Carver builds a pipe organ with 750 pipes made entirely out of peanuts. A shadow is cast over this project when the organist dies of anaphylactic shock.
- Goku releases his one off cover of "I Will Always Love You". People who listen to the song say they feel Goku's pain.
[edit] 1906
- The few years prior to 1906 went along fine; 1903 particularly, who single-handedly fended off the second coming of Christ by tricking God into thinking he was a turnip. This is known as the Great Turnip Confusion of 1903, or the God Turned Up a Turnip Era of the early 1900s. This event also spurred a new desire for horrible puns.
- Many theorize that 1906 saw the success of 1903 and many of the years prior, and felt it could not live up to the new standard years are expected to yield. Others believe that that theory is bullshit and bet money that 1906 just forgot it was its turn and instead opened up a gay Mexican discotheque in Dallas, Texas next to 2009. Respected scientists, however, just say the entire human population just skipped 1906 by accident and went straight to 1907 without looking back.
- Whatever your theory, it cannot be denied that 1906 did not happen, and probably never will. I, for one, would welcome 1906 between, say 2023 and 2024 as a nice break from the confusion of trying to say the years in the 2000s without sounding like an idiot. "Twenty Twenty-Three" just sounds lame. "Nineteen Oh-Six" has potential for an "O-Face" joke.
- Contrary to popular belief, Jesus was pissed that his father returned two years before him and destroyed all of the Wendys Resturants as revenge to his Father and the world. With the 7th largest econemy destroyed, Soviet Russia returns to it's former glory and begins to mass-produce exploding Keanu Reeves toys. Several countries fell to the horror some examples are, Belgium, Canada (The True Canada), Spain, Niaps (It's evil clone), Penguinville, Zergling City, And the Republic of Tentacle Rape Monsters. The world weeps for the loss of their greatest deporter of Tentacle Rapings.
