Elaine Smith Writes

Anything She Wants

History of the World

According to children.

This has been bouncing around the internet for a while, so it’s entirely possible you may have seen it.  I always like to revisit it, however, and it is an entirely perfect candidate for Silly Saturdays.

I think the following are among my favorites—because they seem to be true as well as funny:

He [Saint Paul] preached holy acrimony,

Queen Elizabeth was the Virgin Queen. As a queen she was a success.

Romeo and Juliet are an example of a heroic couplet.

and

Soon the Constitution of the United States was adopted to secure domestic hostility.

But there is a lot more inventive history there, so click on that link and enjoy!
