***********
2010 ans de notre histoire symbolisés par 60 personnages d'une valeur vie chacun de 33 ans 6 mois. Mises bout à bout, ces 60 vies de 33 ans et demi représentent le temps écoulé depuis J.C. jusqu'à nous .
Celà démontre que cette distance dans le temps est courte, mais aussi qu'une vie de 33 ans 6 mois, bien que jeune, représente un laps de temps important.
Explanatory:
2010 years of our history symbolized by 60 characters of a value life each of 33 years 6 months. Settings end to end, these 60 x 33 years lives and half represent the time passed since J.C to us.
That shows that this distance in time is short, but also that a 33 years life 6 months, although the life of a young person, represents an important amount of time.

- puis Henri III , Renaissance II et fin avec Henri IV (1589-1610)
etc..

Il manque :
-entre Louis XI et François I : Louis XII, son régne marquera la fin du moyen âge .
-entre François I et Henri III : Henri II au régne court (ne correspond pas à un point de repère) .
