Best Years In History

Why is 2000 the best year? Because:

-new millennium (duh! )
-PS2 was released
-Nothing really bad happened that year
-I was born
-and many more

2005 comes really close, however.

Great year. The only year of the 2000's with a strong economy, the beginning of the millenium, the year of the dragon, a leap year, and I could go on and on.

Ah, the early 2000's, when saying the word retarded was completely acceptable

no

It was awesome because like we had new Technology like smart phones and good computers, but it wasn't a problem with people being glued to them and our life didn't revolve around Technology. Probably best year of my life so far, 2012 comes very close but this year was special because he music was better and the world was a better place.

Everyone was creative and different

Oh my god best year ever! Considering I was off school for like over 18 weeks of the year because of the snow which was awesome! Please let another year be like this - sryanbruen

This is the year I was born?! Is this why it is a great year!? 😲☺️

I swear to God 2017 will be a thousand times better than 2016. - anonygirl

That's when lots of web series and cool, things happened like bratz we'll kinda

The weather was perfect this year, plus who doesn't like 07

Ugh I love 2007

The year of Fight Club and The Matrix. And I was born that year

I was born that year, and so much magical things happened.

The year I was born.

Hey! I was born than
DECEMBER 30th 19999

The world ended in this year and now we're all ghosts! Ha ha ha!

Um the best year like ever creepers I mean creepers you guys are so weird I mean 2012 was the best 1. Because I am not stupid like you guys.2. Because it was like the best year ever.

Um the worst tear like ever creeper I mean creepers you guys are so awesome I mean 2012 was the worst 1 Because I am not stupid like you guys.2 Because it was like the worst year ever

Second best year in my life! The first best is the year I was born.

This single year is golden. What an amazing period the early 2010s were. They were like the 2000s in a way, but better than, say, 2008-2009 and so far were the best decade yet. 2013-now is just awful and is just a cruel change for the worse. - Frodomar49

Even though I lost 3 cats that year, I thought 2011 was a great year for me. I went to Yosemite, Six Flags (I went several times that year), and Disneyland that same year. And plus, I had a best friend. I respect your opinion if you do not like 2011. - anonygirl

Best year ever for me. I met my girlfriend. I traveled the world. Best marks in school ever. I practiced tennis really hard and successful. And everyone around me was also really happy. Everything was so nice for me in 2011. I like almost every year except 2013.

I would say that this year is the best year in my life! ( although I am not born in this year) because all my favourite songs came out on that year! Actually my favourite year is 2009-2014 but I really relates to 2011 a lot! And that's why I loved this year!

Not the best year in history, but the best year of my life - just coming into my own as an adult and having so much fun across the board! Crazy to see people born in 2007 on TheTopTens already though!

The world became an amazing place for once...I was born! And YouTube was created on 2005, so...ya know, I actually HAVE a YouTube channel...Random Pete

Resident evil 4 and I think one of my best year

Oh I was born this year! Many great things came out like Club Penguin, YouTube and the good T.V. Shows back then!

YEAR I WAS BORN, BIITCH - NightmareCinema

The year great movies like Yellow Submarine and 2001: A Space Odyssey were released. Check them out if you haven't!

Should be #2. People were happier less greedy they talked socialized. It was better even though I was not born yet:

This is the year my mom was born!

LED ZEPPELIN

The year teenage mutant ninja turtles and lilo & stitch was out. - radon548

This is the worst year. Gregory Peck died, and then my favorite actor, Charles Bronson, died.

The year I was born, and teen titans and finding nemo came out.

I was born.

YEAH! The world got hippies, people having sex covered in mud, the summer of love, and some amazing music. - BeatlesFan1964

I was gonna vote for 1969 because of Woodstock, the Beginnings of the Internet, and the moon landing but you just can't beat the summer of love. It's sad that I was born in 2000, I would have loved those times.

Greatest music. Love hippies. Time when people were vastly more connected and having a buffoon like dumpy in the White House was unthinkable

Yeah, the year of Psychedelic rock, deserves to be on this list for sure. - RogerWatersfan1999

Why mention woodstock? What about, umm, THE MOON LANDING

Don't forget the excitement of watching the build up to the moon landing with the earlier Apollo missions in 1969. Also Concords first flight, Simon and Garfunkel's Bridge over Troubled Waters as well as Woodstock. Also the first microchip and ARPANET. We thought science and technology would solve all our problems back then and why not with all this going on? Also the year Star Trek was first shown in the on UK T.V.. Great year to be 11/12 (like me) with the future looking so bright.

The year scooby-doo where are you was born. - radon548

Led Zeppelin's first and second albums, and also Beatles' Abbey Road were released!

This wasn't the best year for cinema but it was very good. Quentin Tarintino had two movie out. Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs, Wes Craven brought us Scream, Desperado was considered the most violent movie on earth, Radiohead was rocking and rolling. George Clooney had not collided with the devil to ruin batman in 1997, the internet was made around 1996, Aids was getting treatments, Canada had a complete mix of the 70's 80's and 90's, and the twisted version of the little red ridding hood AKA Freeway, came out. There were so many awesome things that happened this year. The economy was doing great too. I think I was born in the wrong generation, this year was amazing!

Personally, I wish I could've been born this year...

Cartoon Network was getting started with shows like dexter

On that year - PanthersFTWpatriotsFTL

2013 was NOT the best year ever. 2014 was just a little better than 2013, but 2013 was AWFUL. Lots of games and stuff getting discontinued. Shows becoming a lot worse, UGH what an AWFUL year! - TopTenJackson

2013 was a pretty lousy year. Bombings, terrorists, hurricanes, and even some of my experiences that happened turned it into crap

2013 was my favorite year of my life so far. I was 11 and I'm now 15. I did so many adventurous things that year. I went to Wyoming and South Dakota for 3 weeks in the summer. 5th and 6th grade were amazing. I still played my Xbox 360. And a lot of good songs came out. And Minecraft became very popular.

Steven Universe! - puglover2008

This is the worst year ever and it should not be on the list

This was one of the best years for movies. We got Whiplash, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Guardians of the Galaxy, Edge of Tomorrow, and so much more.

My third favorite year still better than 2011 because in 2011 Fourth Grade ugh the worst thing ever this is better than 2012 2016 and 2017 best year ever The LEGO Movie was my favorite movie ever this year rocks! My first favorite year was 2006 second 2010 In my opinion this is the best year! - Lordvader3500

2014 is just as bad as 2017 and 2018. Get this off from this list. - LeRoiDesSapins

I was born this year! - Spiritualsavedboy

There were no humans to ruin the planet back then.

To the other comment: The universe just started. There was no earth to ruin.

Proabebly true!

To be honest: I don't see what's the hate about 2015, because this was such a green year for me & my Instagram! This was when I was first famous during spring break in my 9th grade year! During the summer I got my very first summer job & also my time going to the beach in Texas. During the fall which is October, a brawl occurred at my school, I went to fair, & I got a new bed. It's 2017 & it's feels like this year is already better than 2016. - DPS501

What Why people like this year this year is an nightmare god damn 2015 Is worst than any other years.

I see why people hate this year, terrorism, bombings, shootings, etc. But some of the good things were that our economy was pretty good, and it was a good year for movies, animation, video games, and some songs. There's good and bad to every year, even the year 2000.

No I had the worst teacher ever I was starting 2 grade

This year will be better THAN 2017 and 2016! Because I'm going to graduate high school, do my excuse in the summer, and on the month of August they will be no more high school & taking the school bus! So make 2018 beat up 2016 and 2017!

This year has been great for me so far, except for February 14th when there was a shooting less than 15 miles from where I live. Oh and my insomnia hit its height in the last week, which ruined what would have been one of my favorite years. - allamassal

To be honest 2016-2017 was terrible but I have hope that this year will be better - Randomator

This year sucks already! Wow! We just have 2 years left until the 2010s is over. I hope the 2020s have a 1980s/1990s comeback.

This was my year. Everything I did was very memorable, and all my sports went well. (Mainly Federer winning the French Open and Wimbledon. )

Good movies, like Inglourious Basterds. This year was the best year for me because so much great things has happened! Got my video game console for the first time and Assassin's Creed II came out...

My favorite year. Lots of great albums were made in this year that I love.

My brother was born. That's it. - PanthersFTWpatriotsFTL

Not a great year
The day the music died and I believe Elvis was drafted to the army this year - ThePerson

Everyone knows the 1920s were actually the best years ever. People just vote for the other ones because they were born that year. This website is not really accurate because the voters aren't making good choices.

Good year for Irish coin collectors. - computerfan0
