Eras & Events

Mar 23, 2011 14:04

Claim a historical era or event! Check out this list to get an idea of what is available for claiming.

It will help me out a lot if you're very specific in what you're claiming! Please let me know what event or era, what country or location, and what years are involved.

Examples: The American Civil War, U.S., 1861-1865; The Renaissance, Europe, 1300s-1600s; World War II, France, 1939-1945.

You can claim a broad or a narrow location of an era. For example, you can claim Europe during WWII, just Western Europe, just France, or even just Paris. If some claims Italy during the Renaissance, you can claim Florence or Spain or all of Europe, etc.

Please let me know what years (or centuries as the case may be) that your era takes place in. If you have no idea, just look it up on Wikipedia.

If you have a question if your claim is appropriate, leave it in the comments.

Please read the rules before claiming.

Claim with a comment saying: [year(s)][era/event][location]
