What @Parthicus and I use is similar. However we adjust for culture, since its an extremely Eurocentric view that something major changed around...
Goes back to lack of education poor word choices. The one I hate is the misuse of decimated, "oh bruh, it was completely wiped out, it was...
I do believe it depends on the area of the world. What I always used, (with an exception for Byzantines who spanned the eras), was fall of Rome in...
