Historical events ends between 219 - 207

I think is not a bug or nothing to worry about but still I wanted to know if the modification of the years ends there

if so why and well I liked them it was good reading and learning

212BC IIRC.

Why? Because they aren't (yet) made.
Why not? The writer didn't have enough time to go all the way to 14AD?

Yes. Making those descriptions was a very long and laborious process. One can't blame the historian for writing 60 years of descriptions, and not the 280 years.

Plus, writing such descriptions demands an ample knowledge of ancient history. And most of the members able to write such texts were busy doing more essential things to the mod (concepting units, compiling builds, betatesting, writing building descriptions, etc).

Though I agree that it's a very nice feature. I very much enjoyed reading such texts in my campaign.

Out of curiosity I checked the historic events text file, and the historian that wrote those "Year In History" events wrote about 32 full pages of general history.

OH is that so ahhhh man oh well is a nice feature I love because maybe this sounds boring but I like ancient history is just something that drives me there becuase modern era like WWII games get me really tired

Rome TW changed that and better yet EB make it best as for now is a little boring playing without the historical facts and try to wait many turns until the reform to use the full power of ROme

I hope in EBII for METWII they at least make the historical facts a little bit more complete I know is hard and ardous job but it will be nice

another question to be exited and reach the 100BC year is if Julius Caesar will appear as a character
if so what do I need to do to make it happen or just appears like that

if is no then well have to finish te camping as it is right now but at least with the legions

No, Julius Caesar does not and will not ever appear in EB or EB II.

And what's wrong with modern history?

I was just summarizing and reorganizing things I read in other places - it's certainly not some sort of original composition.
