The Phantom Time Hypothesis -- The Middle Ages Never Happened
About this episode
According to a German historian, the year is actually 1724. He says our calendar is a lie and a big chunk of the Middle Ages never happened.
Which says that back in 1000 AD, there was a conspiracy between the church and the Holy Roman emperor to change the calendar. The years 614 through 911 were completely made up. Those 300 years just didn't happen.
So all that history you learned about Charlemagne and the middle ages. Completely fabricated. In fact, the theory says that Charlemagne was specifically designed as propaganda to support the calendar change. To give the emperor and the pope more power.
Sounds crazy? Well, there may proof.
Let's find out why.
