'The History Of The World Backwards' Comedy Series

Er202506's first story on this wiki. Time flows forwards, but years and months are counted backwards, and history and technology get simpler and less sophisticated.......until the universe implodes in a big crunch.

This comedy timeline is a work in progress, so this page may eventually become huge; you have been warned.

As new events are added to Wikipedia, they will be put here and re-written by Er202506, as somewhat of an RSS feed system.
