Century is an arbitray concept.

It is not arbitrary, what you meant was artificial.

Both I guess, arbitrary in its length (who decides how long a year is based on what calendar) and artificial. Also I can't spell.
It's like they release a new expansion pack every 10 years.

It would be arbitrary if there was no logic behind it, but people put a lot of thought into the calender systems. but this is not the point of the thread ree

World changing events tend to happen every generation, so of course you'd expect one within 20 years of any arbitrarily selected date.

There were no world changing events from the 50's to the 90's And nothing truly significant happened from the napoleonic wars on towards the first world war, unless you count the formation of the german empire
there are non stop geopolitical changes idiot.
