What do you think of the phantom time theory?
The tl;dr version is
>Latin wasnt an organic language but an artificial one created to facilitate trade
>the Romans came from Dacia
>around 1000 AUC (Ad Urbus Condita) a great cataclysm happened, blotting out the sun and sending Europe into a period of turmoil. The lack of sun caused a famine. >Malnutrition from the famine facilitated a MASSIVE plague. The northmen, seeking to survive invaded Rome
>A small and heretofore uninfluential cult that had existed for 300 years and preached an impending apocalypse suddenly exploded in numbers as the people felt their gods had abandoned them. This cult then became the catholic church.
>There was one problem. The christians had been predicting that the apocalypse would come One Thousand years after Jesus' death. In the phantom time hypothesis, Jesus was born 753 AUC and the cataclysm happened in 1000 AUC, only 247 years after Jesus
Heres the big part
>In order to legitimize their prophecies, these catholics began to falsify history en masse to "correct" the timeline. They expanded 247 years of history into 1000 years by repeating the events they just witnessed, changing only the names. They expanded these events THREE times to become 1000 years. The dates of these newly expanded events were the third century AD, the 6th century AD, and the 9th century AD
>The crisis of the third century plus the barbarian invasion was also the wars of Justinian against the vandals, and the wars of Charlemagne and Alfred (who were regional roman governors of Gaul and Britannia) against the saxons and vikings
>The Plague of Cyprian was also the Plague of Justinian. I do not know if there was any great plague in the 9th century
>In reality according to phantom time hypothesis, 247 AD and 1000 AD are in fact the same year. Therefore we are actually living in the year 1268 AD or 2074 AUC
