Jul. 25th, 2004 05:21 amAnniversaries are important. We all know that. National anniversaries are especially important - I was barely sentient for the bicentennial, but I remember having heard about it a lot. Everyone remembers reading about the Silver Jubilee and all that from Victoria's reign, in Britain.
So what's England going to do in 2066?
Who else (other than China) has thousand-year anniversaries? Does France have a defining event like that (Chalemagne's coronation, maybe)?
Makes the US look like an angsty adolescent, that does . . .
