Encyclopedia Oceasia, C.A. 217.

The Current Age: It is perhaps fitting, in this watery age, that we cannot say with absolute certainty when the Current Age began and when the preceeding age, the Stone Age, finished. The transitional period is held to begin on June the 16th 1904 by the old calender, and ended June the 30th the following year, or 01/01/00 by the calenders of the Aqueous Age. This gap of time gave us the two saints of the age, Saint James and Saint Albert.

But for a long time terranity was unaware of what had happened. It continued to use the old calenders and the old traditions for another century, a time during which more terrans, or humans as they refered to themselves then, were killed than at any time in the Stone Age. The Current Age, the Aeon of Water, was washing away all certainties and the natural response of humanity, still living in a world of countries and borders, was a regression to primitive first-circuit/lizard brain behaviour: The crumbling of the Germanic Empire led to the rising of the despotic Emperor Hitler, the fall of the Empire of Stalin inevitably led to the rise of the American Empire, led by the 'gang of four', Reagan, Clinton and the Family of Bush. And it was only when that last empire fell, after gorging itself on the planet until it was unable to sustain so large a beast, that the Aqueous Age could be said to have truly began.

Work done at the Charles Johnson Memorial Centre in Ramallah have shown that as the Age developed, as science dissolved the Stone with more uncertainty, so humanity responded with more fury, Saint Niels work on quantum mechanics was followed by Emperor Hitler's pogrom of Jews, which both Saint Niels and Saint Albert were. In the latter half of the 'twentieth century', c. 75 CA, Saint Richard's work on memetic theory was followed by a backlash and temporary restoration of the forces of religion. In both cases both Empire's shunned the people they needed to achieve their temporal objectives, the scientists and intellectuals, which led to their inevitable collapse. Religion was recapitulated into it's source in the human imagination, which led to the full-scale 're-realisation' of exactly what that term meant, and was seen as one of the main causes of humanities transformation into terranity.
