I figured by looking at how many posts I've dumped into this forum since October of last year, I notice this post will be counted as no. 1314 for me...
 
I went ahead and thought of a fun idea for us who have interest in history.
 
Heres how it goes:
 
Look at what your current post number is.
Look up the number on Wikipedia.org...
(Wikipedia will identify it as a year you are searching for)
See what happened in history with that inputted number
Share what happened in history on here.
 
Let's see how long this thread will last as I will start.
 
I will search wikipedia for "1314" as this is currently right now my post number.
 
"The Hereford Mappa Mundi (Map of the World) is made. It shows Jerusalem at the centre, as decreed in the Bible." 
  
 
 
Next?   
 
EDIT: I figured the majority of us active users that have posts under 2000 count that this will only work for us. Someone with 3000 or 5000 (ex. vastAire) may not find any useful information.
