I will throw this concept together real quick, just for FYI. May be some will want to dig in this direction as well. We appear to have one historical period presented as two. This period could be characterized by the existence of the following...
You also know by now, that that about everything "ancient" we have, was discovered in the 18th, 19th centuries.
Have not looked at Africa and South America yet.
If you look at every single country individually, between 1800 and 1870s, it was most likely fighting for its “independence”. May be we could push the date back to 1775-76 due to the Pugachev’s “uprising” in Russia, and the War for Independence in the US.
Essentially we could have this proverbial Spartacus uprising against the Holy Roman Empire, aka Ancient Rome in Europe, and something similar everywhere else.
Check it out for yourself by googling any country name with the word slavery. I googled “slavery Sweden” and here is the result:
- Ancient Rome: 753 BC - 476 AD > 1229 years
- Holy Roman Empire: 800 AD - 1806 AD > 1006 years

- Questionable antiquity of the "ancient" statues
- The History of Rome has no Surviving Sources
- Roman monuments to non-Roman individuals
- Giant "Ancient" Romans, Human Engineering and the Real Slavery
- Fake Antiquity: this is Julius Caesar. Really?
- 79 A.D. no more: Pompeii got buried in 1631
- Was Cleopatra a medieval queen?
- Will the real Pontius Pilate please stand up, and show us your toga?
Slavery
We have the United States with outright slavery in its history. We also have Russia with their serfdom. Once you read the description, and dig deep into what it actually was, you see that it’s a twin brother of the slavery. Both got abolished.- Serfdom abolished in Russia: 1861
- Slavery abolished in the USA: 1865
- Could probably mix in the Paris Commune in here: 1871

- Slave trade was outlawed in Britain in 1807, and in the United States in 1808, after which other countries started to follow suit. Sweden made the slave trade illegal in 1813, but allowed slavery until October 9, 1847.
