The new dynasties of Europe agreed among themselves to create a history of their own, which would assert their monarchical rights.
Traditionally, it is believed that the oldest letter writing was "Hebrew" - modern Hebrew, then Greek writing arose on its basis, and only after that Latin, Cyrillic and other European alphabets were formed. This sequence of development of writing is entirely determined by the currently accepted historical chronology of the development of modern civilization: first, the culture was developed by the supposedly “ancient” Jews and Egyptians, then by the “ancient” Greeks, then by the “ancient” Romans, and only then by the Slavs. Then - the "dark ages of the Middle Ages", the Western European "Renaissance" … and "barbaric" Russia allegedly lagged behind Europe by 200 years because of the "Tatar-Mongol yoke".

However, the current chronology became generally accepted only in the 16th-17th centuries, after the Catholic Cathedral of Trent canonized the calculations of the monk Dionysius and for the first time decreed that the year of the end of the Council was 1563 from the birth of Christ. Modern research shows: the existing sequence of events until the 16th century. is fundamentally wrong. One of the apologists for this hypothesis is the Russian chemist, musician, author of famous works in the field of history and linguistics, Yaroslav Kesler. He is sure: the reason for the error lies in the collapse of the common European Byzantine Empire in the 15th century, which ended with the final fall of Constantinople in 1453, into three main parts - Orthodox Eastern Europe (Russian Empire), Catholic Western Europe (Holy Roman Empire) and Muslim Southern Europe (Ottoman Empire). Each of the three parts of the former unified empire claimed the legacy of Byzantium.

Throughout the XVI century. in Europe, the division of the Byzantine heritage continued, which ended with the collapse by the beginning of the 17th century of the monarchs of the old imperial dynasty - the Rurikovichs in Russia, the Přemyslids-Luxemburgs in Central Europe, Valois in France, the Avises in Portugal, the Tudors in England, etc. and the rise to power new dynasties - the Romanovs in Russia, the Bourbons in France, the Habsburgs in Central and Southwestern Europe, the Stuarts in England, etc.
It was these new dynasties that agreed among themselves to create a history of their own that would assert their monarchical rights. Naturally, the entire previous "glorious Byzantine history" each of the monarchies tried to make part of their own. This is how parallel versions of the same events appeared. And subsequent historians had no choice but to push back into the past those facts that did not agree with each other, since they had a diametrically opposite meaning (for example, among the winners and losers in any war).

The reader can easily be convinced that this "division" of Europe is still preserved: attach a ruler to a modern map of Europe from about St. Petersburg to the "heel of an Italian boot", and to the right of the line there will be predominantly Orthodox (Russia, Romania, Greece, Serbia, Macedonia) and Muslim (Albania and Turkey), and on the left - mainly Catholic (Lithuania, Poland, Hungary, Croatia, Italy) countries. At the same time, the center of the division turns out to be precisely Bosnia, whose Muslim language practically does not differ from the language of Orthodox Serbia and Catholic Croatia.

It was here, in Slavic Central Europe, that the European alphabetic writing was born, in contrast to the Egyptian hieroglyphic, and its name is the Proto-Slavic (or rather, the Proto-European) alphabet. And if, as the supporters of the theory of the new chronology say, we reject the imposed on us in the XVI-XVII centuries. incorrect chronology, then the supposedly "ancient" Greek and "ancient" Hebrew letters, not to mention the Latin alphabet, become derivatives of the ABC. The same derivative of the ABC is the "Old Indian" language - Sanskrit, the very concept of which arose only in the 17th century, and "ancient" literary monuments in this language were "suddenly" discovered even later. And no matter how hard linguists try to build a single tree of Indo-European languages, putting Sanskrit in its root, this very "ancient Indian" name, for example, in Spanish means "Holy Scripture" (San Escrito), that is.it is a tracing paper from medieval Latin.
