We might be living in an era unlike any other, but when looking back on history, this is nothing compared to the weirdness that's ensued in the past. Yes, it's always been this bad. It's unclear if maybe people were always just a little dumb or if they had other reasons for losing a war against flightless birds, but either way, it seems like the human race hasn't always been doing incredible things, and in reality, we were just causing horrible problems for one another, some of which we're still dealing with today. Fortunately, we can laugh at the mistakes of the people who came before us.

History memes exist to help us do just that. When the modern era is getting tiring, take a look back on the ridiculousness of living hundreds of years prior. Because when things get bad, at least we can remember that it's always been worse. Here are some of our favorite hand-picked memes about the olden days that none of us remember.
