17 de febrero : Batalla de Hemmingstedt

El año 1500 ( MD ) fue un año bisiesto que comenzó el miércoles del calendario juliano . El año 1500 no fue un año bisiesto en el calendario gregoriano proléptico .

El año fue visto como un año especialmente importante por muchos cristianos en Europa, quienes pensaron que traería el comienzo del fin del mundo . Su creencia se basaba en la frase "medio tiempo después del tiempo", cuando estaba previsto que ocurriera el apocalipsis, que aparece en el Libro de Apocalipsis y se consideraba que se refería al año 1500. Esta vez también fue justo después del descubrimiento del Viejo Mundo de América en 1492, y por lo tanto fue influenciado en gran medida por el Nuevo Mundo. [1]

Históricamente, el año 1500 también se identifica a menudo, de manera algo arbitraria, como el final de la Edad Media y el comienzo de la Era Moderna . [2]

El final de este año marcó la mitad del segundo milenio , ya que hubo 500 años antes y 500 años después.
