Does anyone know much about the Middle Ages? Anyone a big history fan? Well what if I told you a huge chunk of the middle ages, I'm talking a couple hundred of years, never actually existed? That the years 614 to 911 AD have been forged in the historical timeline we know today. Even more, that this was done at the hands of European leaders - the Pope and Emperors who all strived to lead at the change of millennium. These leaders wanted to be a part of a new millennium to become more popular in order for their beliefs to have a stronger hold on the public. Why is there so little physical evidence of this chunk of the Middle Ages? What about the architecture styles used allegedly hundreds of years before the style itself was even created? Can we actually trust the historical dating systems based on trees and radioactivity?
