Uh...you're off by a century.  The Thirty Years War was between 1618 and 1648.

500 years ago the Reformation started.  Probably why some boomers insist that we can't possibly be in a Mega-Unraveling because apparently this 500 years pattern is supposed to be a hard fast rule or something.  (Saeculum B probably throws off his astrological calculations or some such nonsense.)
