pro-tip: don’t ever use the sentence “thousands of years” in your worldbuilding unless you really know what a thousand years is like
Quick cheat sheet:
The middle ages were one thousand years ago
I don’t know if I need you to tell you this but Jesus was alive 2 thousand years ago during the Roman Empire
3 thousand years ago the Mediterranean and Middle East were recovering from the bronze age collapse. None of the philosophers of Western philosophy (or Eastern for that matter) were born yet
Earliest writing dates roughly to 5 thousand years ago.
Agriculture started roughly 10 thousand years ago
So yes, you can write whatever you like but if you’re telling me that an individual dynasty has been ruling since 8000 years ago (HOLA JORGE) I have to wonder if they even had writing back then
To be fair you can find one guy like that in the comment section of most metal bands on youtube

btw i will never forgive this site’s “horses are scary and evil!” phase. horses are lovely and their big necks and heads are perfectly sized for hugging you.
you should do this and maybe then you’ll calm down
