The history of 2012 is primarily associated with the Mayans and their calendar. Their calendar ends on December 21st, 2012, supposedly marking the end of the world "as we know it". The short video below explains the Mayan calendar, and even how possibly another prophecy from the ancient China also predicts the end in 2012.

Does the ending on the Mayan calendar really mean anything? Will all of this pass over, just like Y2K did, so that we will celebrate the beginning of the new year in 2012? These are the questions that everyone is asking right now. Some also argue that instead of the end of the world, some kind of transformation will take place. Could this be what the end of the world "as we know it" really means? Will the United States somehow collapse? Will World War III occur and wipe out most of civilization as we know it. No one knows for sure, and nobody will... until the counter at the top of this web site ticks down its final moments to December 21st, 2012.
