Oops I missed 1496 AD, here you go:
In 1496 AD, Christopher Columbus leaves Hispaniola for Spain, ending his second visit to the Western Hemisphere. During his time here he has forcibly subjugated the island, enslaved the Taíno, and laid the basis for a system of land grants tied to the Taíno's enslavement.

I'd go to your party! I miss seeing people and doing things. Life is just different these days.

I kinda wanna go watch Columbo again. I don't think I've seen any since I was very young. But I also fear ruining the magic.

In 1497 AD, cats were mostly extinct in India and very few around the villages and are now also extinct in city cats due to continuous human interference with their environment. They were thriving in rural India but that is no more the case. They were hunted down in the name of medicine, food, and sport, as well as consumption of meat and fishing tackle. The religious beliefs around were also largely based on the use of cat meat and trapping them. Thus the killing of these four-footed animals for human consumption as food, was very common and did not spare any creature of the animal kingdom.

In 1497 AD, Followers of Girolamo Savonarola burn thousands of "immoral" objects, at the
Bonfire of the Vanities in Florence.
Didn’t realize this is what that phrase referred to.

bonus fake history time
In 1497 AD, the bonfire of van cats is an old tradition which consists of the ritual burning of a large wooden figurine called a van cat. According to the tradition, this bonfire symbolizes the defeat of a mythical dragon who lives in the Mediterranean Sea and chases the sea turtles and catches them in his mouth. It is believed that van cats are made of hemp, wood and candles. The bonfire symbolizes freedom and the ability of the van cat to survive all the events.

They burned so many bathroom counters so no one had anywhere to brush their teeth or do their hair. It was all a plot by Florentine dentists and barbers to drum up business.
