Year 2000

• What happened?
  • le munje naku pu se daspo vau .ui
    • .i do jinvi le du'u makau kei di'e:

Nostradamus:

"In the year of the new century and nine months,

From the sky will come a great King of Terror...

The sky will burn at forty-five degrees.

Fire approaches the great new city..."

"In the city of york there will be a great collapse,

2 twin brothers torn apart by chaos

while the fortress falls

the great leader will succumb

third big war will begin when the big city is burning"

First of all, that is about the year 2001. Second of all, it is a FAKE. It was fabricated based on a real quote, but from a paper on Nostradamus as an example of how easy it is to make that sort of statement. See the discussion of it on the Urban Legend Reference Pages if you want to know more.

All those lines are taken from real Nostradamus quatrains, but the hoaxer took lines from different quatrains and threw them all together! Rubbish. -xod Furthermore, the second half is not even based on real prophecies of his!
