I think we are heading to the times of William the Conqueror, if not sooner then definitely later.

There's lots of written history being undone as we speak.

The (sort of) history channel:

Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa. Yes, I believe a trip back through time to those thrilling days of yesteryear, to wit, 1750's (French & Indian War), 1620 (the Mayflower), 1607 (Jamestown??), 1592 (General Yi Sun-shin and his turtle boat armada destroys Hideoyoshi's fleet in the Tsushima Straits off the coast of Korea), 1519 (Cortez & Mexico), 1492 (Chris C. et al, the expulsion of the Moors from Granada) and, my favorite, 1392 (the invention of the Korean alphabet, han'gul, by King Sejong, to this day the most perfect alphabet ever invented, perhaps because of its late provenance).

Fwiw, I don't see us in the Crusades or in the Norman Conquest, bwdik??? In fact, I say it's up for the rest of the week in the Naz, treading water or somewhat worse in the OSX.
