What I am finding interesting is that events, records, descriptions are eerily similar for the 14C and the 16C. If I overlay the history we are given for both centuries and compare it to the graph of the mini ice age, they seem to be taking place during the same period. Could this be the second half of our 'inserted' time line?
It is looking more likely that a considerable amount of building and substantial infrastructure was actually taking place during the 10th, 11th and 12th centuries, during the warm and productive period. A growth in wealth, population and cities. A revival from the upheavals and decimation of the 6th C ( we've kind of got the idea of the time and history insertion on that point).
Not only were the 14th and 16th so similar in their vague and scant records but the latter sounds even worse and the chart reflects as such with regards to climate, events etc.
The one thing that is not taken into account or mentioned (other than some paintings and renderings) and probably intentionally, is the cosmic factor which is, I think, successfully described by Randal Carlson's sources of the type of events and why they would have occurred. Such explanations are largely omitted from history records for 'our education'.
I've used these videos to illustrate what I mean because they use sources that are given to us as accepted history. They are mostly around 10min. I think it leaves room to fill in the gaps with what I proposed above and still sound plausible. It can explain the plethora of 'localised' events over a very long period and in effect, global. The deserted villages, towns, settlements and fortification, or what was left of them, were ripe for claiming and 'founding'. Subsequent 'immigration' in whatever form, provided a perfect mask to claim ownership and history. As for dissenters, there were institutions aplenty to house their sick minds.
It appears that the century of exploration beginning in the late 16th is actually a frantic search for resources and conquering by those who were able and desperate enough to do so; the more elite and power hungry set sail across the world to conquer and control everything.
Even during the 19th C, the world was still 'stabilising' while conflagrations, earthquakes and volcanoes were causing periodic woes.
As an aside, IMO, the continuation of the 'holy roman empire' post Justinian plague is actually the empire of the church and nothing much to do with Rome except for individuals and groups entitling themselves with new powers and positions of authority. Pretty much the same happens during the end of the little ice age, I think.
There are others, although, I think it paints the picture well enough to inspire more detailed research. FWIW
