Through The Ages (Outro) Songtext / Lyric

From the Roman conquest of Britain

in the year 43 AD to 61 AD

To the Saxon raids between 205 and 537 AD

Followed by viking raids from 719 to around 1016



The Norman conquest of 1066,

including the battle of Hastings

Leading to the crusades, which persisted

throughout the 11th, 12th, and 13th centuries



The Anglo-French wars of the 12th, 13th and 14th centuries

Culminating in the massacre of Agincourt



The first English civil war of 1215 to 1217

The first of many



The Hundred Years War from 1337 to 1457

The War of the Roses from 1455 to 1485

The War of the Holy League from 1510 to 1540

Another war created in the name of God






The Eighty Years War of 1568 to 1648

Followed by the great English Civil War of 1642 to 1651

The American Revolution of 1792 lasting through to 1802

Followed by the Napoleonic wars of 1803 to 1815

Ending in the battle of Waterloo



The wars on both Zulus and Boers through around 1879 to 1902



World War I

1914 to 1918

The so-called War of All Wars

The Great War

Millions slaughtered in mud of France



World War II 1939 to 1945

The war that should never have happened

A prime example of man's inhumanity

Including the bombing of Japan



Vietnam from 1956 to 1975

The war that America would never forget

More recently, the Falklands war in 1982

The Gulf war of 1991



Mankind's destructive nature

Throughout the ages
