Answer 1

Just trying to get a handle on the timeline? There’s a book available called “The Timeline of World History”. It’s available at Barnes & Noble, Borders, Amazon, Chapters, Indigo, etc. and it’s usually not very expensive. Maybe you want to look into picking up a copy of that.


In the meantime:

The dark ages – this is a an outdated term that is not used by an serious historians anymore. It is recognized to be a pejorative term invented by Enlightenment-era philosophers to denigrate anything that came before them except ancient Greece

The middle ages – roughly the millennium from from the end of the Western Roman Empire (dated from the abdication of Romulus Augustus in 476) to either the fall of Byzantium (1453), Columbus's voyage to the New World (1492), or the begining of the Protestant Reformation (1517) depending on who you talk to.

Feudalism – was not a medieval term. It was invented by French and English lawyers in the 17th century to describe certain traditional obligations between members of the warrior aristocracy. Therefore, it’s hard to give a date to something that was not recognized as such in the period in which is was supposed to have existed. Vasselage agreements arose out of the old Roman patronage system and the roots of that cannot be dated with any certainty either.

The roman empire – September 2, 31BC – September 4, AD 476 (in the west) and May 29, 1453 (in the East).

Greek empire – It depend on what you mean. Greek Empire can refer to the following:
- The Greek Empire of a Greek state in Classical Times
- The Greek Empire of the ancient Macedonian Kingdom during the reign of Alexander the Great
- The Greek Empire as the set of all successor states of the Diadochoi (successors of Alexander the Great).
- The medieval Greek Empire, as it was commonly referred to by Western European nations - what we call today Byzantine Empire.

Alexander the Great - July 356 BC–June 11, 323 BC

Mesapotania - Mesopotamian history extends from the emergence of urban societies in Southern Iraq in the 4th millennium BC to the arrival of Alexander the Great in the 4th century BC (which is seen as the hallmark of the Hellenization of the Near East, therefore supposedly marking the "end" of Mesopotamia). A cultural continuity and spatial homogeneity for this entire historical geography ("the Great Tradition") is popularly assumed, though the assumption is problematic.

Christianity (i know it started in year 1 or close to that, but when did it get big?) – The current calendar is supposed to based on the birth of Jesus, but it’s actually off by between 2-8 years. Therefore Christianity started somewhere between AD. 29-36. It was legalized in the Roman Empire in AD. 311 and in 391 it became the state religion.

British empire – 1541-1997 (annexation of Ireland to return of Hong Kong to the Chinese)

Vikings – 790s - 1066

Colonization – Too vague. Who’s colonization of where? It’s been going on throughout human history.

Crusades – 1095-1291

Egyptian empire(s) – 3150 – 31 BC

First chinese dynasty – the Xia Dynasty, 2070 BC–1600 BC

Last chinese dynasty – Qing Dynasty, AD 1644 to 1912.

Introduction of communism – In which country?

Introduction of nazi – originally the Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (German Workers' Party, abbreviated DAP), formed in 1919; changed it name to “National Socialists” in February 1920; Adolph Hilter became party chairman in 1921

Slavery (not in america) – all ancient societies practiced slavery. Do you mean when slavery was re-introduced to Europe?

Land bridge connecting russia to Alaska – somewhat conjectural

First to circumnavigate the globe - Ferdinand Magellan, 1511–1521

Geocentric model - common in ancient Greece. It was embraced by both Aristotle and Ptolemy, and most Greek philosophers assumed that the Sun, Moon, stars, and naked eye planets circle the Earth. Similar ideas were held in ancient China

Greek mythology introduced – lost in the mists of time

Calculus - While some of the ideas of calculus were developed earlier, in ancient Greece and in India, the modern use of calculus began in Europe, during the 17th century, when Isaac Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz built on the work of earlier mathematicians to introduce the basic principles of calculus.

Newton - 4 January 1643 – 31 March 1727

Galileo - 15 February 1564 – 8 January 1642

Aristotle - 384 BC – March 7, 322 BC

Plato - 428/427 BC –c. 348/347 BC

Socrates - circa 470–399 BC

Leonardo Da Vinci - April 15, 1452 – May 2, 1519

the other 3 turtles - 1984

discovery of Saturn – It can be seen with naked eye. Who knows what ancient man or woman say it first? It was called called Φαίνων, Phainon ("shiner") by the Greeks. In Hindu astrology, it is known as "Sani" or "Shani", the Judge. Chinese and Japanese culture designate the planet Saturn as the earth star (土星). In Hebrew, Saturn is called 'Shabbathai' In Ottoman Turkish and in Bahasa Malaysia (the Malay language), its name is 'Zuhal'.
However, the *rings* of Saturn were first observed by Galileo in 1610.

Introduction of the scientific method – developed out of Scholastic Empiricism, which developed in the early universities, which were established in the 12th century.

Darwin – If you mean Charles, (12 February 1809 – 19 April 1882; if you mean the city in Australia, it was established in 1869; if you mean the computer operating system, it was released in 2000.

Discovery of DNA - 1869

Shakespeare - baptised April 26, 1564 – died April 23, 1616

Homer – the Greek poet: unknown. The poems are often dated to the 8th or 7th century BC; the Simpson’s character: 1987

Freud - May 6, 1856–September 23, 1939

Nietzsche - October 15, 1844 – August 25, 1900

Kierkegaard - 5 May 1813 – 11 November 1855

Marx – Karl: May 5, 1818 – March 14, 1883; Groucho: October 2, 1890 – August 19, 1977

Louie the first – which one? Of France? Germany? Hungary? The Holy Roman Empire? Monaco? Bohemia? Poland? (it was kind of a popular name among European royalty)

the last – (see previous question)

Henry the Eighth – King of England: 28 June 1491 - 28 January 1547; the Shakespearean play: probably written in 1608, first performed in 1613, published in 1623

The first czar of Russia – Ivan the Great was the first one to officially use the title as such, however, as “czar” really just means “king” or “empeor” it had been used merely as a description, rather than a title, for centuries before that.

and last – Nicholas II

The great wall of china - built between 5th century BC and the 17th century

Hawaii becomes part of the United States – as a territory, 1869; as a state, 1959

Answer 2

I don't know all of these from the top of my head, but here are a few:
The Middle Ages is that period of time between the fall of the Roman Empire (476) to the discovery of America by Christopher Columbus (1492)
The Dark Ages is that period shortly after the fall of the Roman Empire until (roughly) the Crusades. (So about 476 to 1 095).
Feudalism was a system established in the late Roman Empire, but that was especially well implanted through the Middle Ages and beyond (From +/- 300 to the French Revolution in 1789 and even beyond that in some countries).
There was never really a Greek Empire. Greeks lived in city states. The closest to a Greek Empire was the league of Delos, which was headed by Athens. Greek civilization flourished from the time of Homer (Around 800 - 700 B.C.) until Greece fell under Roman Rule (Around 300 B.C.)
Alexander the Great was King of Macedonia from 356 to 323 B.C. He invaded Egypt, Greece and Asia Minor (The Middle East) all the way to India. His Empire was fragmented soon after his death. That's why it doesn't really qualify as the "Greek Empire".
Roman Emperor Constantine made Christianity the official religion of the Roman Empire in 325.
Mesopotamian Civilization begins around 4 000 B.C., or even further back.
The Vikings flourished in Europe from the XVIIIth Century to 1066 (When William the Conqueror took over England -the official end of the Viking Era).
Colonization begins shortly after the discovery of America in 1492, with settlements as early as 1498 in the New World.
The First Crusade was in 1095 they went on well into the 1200's.
The Egyptian civilization flourished from around 3 500 to Egypt invasion by the Persians in 525 B.C.
The dynasties ruled China from 2205 B.C. (Xia, or Hsia) to 1911 (Qing), when the communist party took over.
Nazism started in the 1920s.
Slavery is as old as civilization, so at least 4 000 B.C.
The first to circumnavigate the Globe was Magellan, in 1521, though Magellan himself died during the voyage. (His crew kept going)
The geocentric model is actually very old. Flat earth theory, contrary to popular belief, was never a very popular world view. The Greeks already had a geocentric model.
Greek Mythology is as old as Greek civilization.
