Disregard Everything I Say

Modern Humans:

200,000 BC – First Anatomically Modern Humans

7500 BC – Agriculture Begins

4000 BC – Invention of Writing (beginning of recorded history)

1800 AD – First use of electricity (Volta invents electrical battery)

1946 AD – First Electronic Computer

1990 AD – Invention of the internet and beginning of the information age

• We have had Agriculture for 4.7% of Human History.
• We have had written Language for 3% of Human history.
• We have had Electricity for 0.1% of Human History.
• We have had Computers for 0.03% of Human History.
• We have been in the information age for 0.01% of Human History.
• We have been Hunter gatherers for the previous 95.3% of Human History.

This timeline is just for Homo Sapien Sapiens. Homo Sapiens which are near identical to human beings with the only difference being that they existed along side Neanderthals and Homo Erectus within the homo genus have existed for the past 2,500,000 and if included puts human civilisation starting with agriculture at just the most recent 0.38% of human history.
