Feathers in Years (Post Your Feather Count)

Postby Cloudy » Wed Apr 26, 2017 12:59 am

Alright! So here's how this game goes:

1) Look at your feather count and determine how many feathers you have
2) Google that number and add "A.D." or "B.C." to the end of it
3) Post your feather count and an event that occurs in that year

*If your feather count exceeds 2017, please use B.C.

*If you can't find anything significant that happened in your year, then just post your feather count in years (esp. if you have obscure years like 3146 B.C.)


The original idea for this game came from Tumblr, where you would reblog a post like this with your follower count and an event that happened in the year your follower count dictates.

Example:

(1492 :Feather:)
1492 A.D.
Christopher Columbus sails the ocean blue sets on his first voyage across the Atlantic Ocean to find a shorter route to Asia


Aaaand... Begin!

2027 B.C.

Uhh, not much really happened in this time but there's this clay pillow-shaped messenger tablet from an important palace archive of the Sumerian city Iri-Saĝrig, dated to 2027 BC. Apparently, this was the second year in the reign of King Ibbi-Sin, the last king of the Ur III

Is it fine if I'm just copying what google says? XD

"The Egyptian king Ptolemy VI Philometor is restored to his throne through the intervention of the citizens of Alexandria. However, the Romans intervene and decide to partition the Ptolemaic realm, ordering Ptolemy VIII Euergetes into Cyrenaica and giving Ptolemy VI Cyprus and Egypt. The two brothers accept the Roman partition."

873 AD
"Emperor Yi Zong (Li Cuī) dies after a 13-year reign. He is succeeded by his 11-year-old son Xi Zong, as ruler of the Tang Dynasty. During his reign, a widespread failure of the agricultural harvest leads to famine (which causes people to resort to cannibalism) and agrarian rebellions."
