Never in 350 years have so many men and women from all walks of life come together to make a final stand against pure EVIL.

Who sent out that tweet, and why 350 years?

Don’t but here’s what was going on in America during the 1670s:

1670 – Charles Town (Charleston) founded in present-day South Carolina.

1671 – The Batts-Fallam expedition sponsored by Abraham Wood reaches the New River (West Virginia).

1672 – Blue Laws enacted in Connecticut.

1672–73 – Louis Jolliet and Jacques Marquette explore the Illinois Country.

1674 – New Netherland permanently relinquished to English with Treaty of Westminster.

1675 – King Philip’s War (1675–76) in New England.

1676 – Bacon’s Rebellion in Virginia; Bacon writes the “Declaration of the People of Virginia”.

1677 – Colonists in North Carolina rebel against Thomas Colepeper, 2nd Baron Colepeper. Edmund Andros, Governor of New York, negotiates the Covenant Chain with the Iroquois.
Province of Maine absorbed by Massachusetts Bay Colony.

1679 – War between the Westo and colonial South Carolina results in the destruction of the Westo. The Province of New Hampshire is created out of the Massachusetts Bay Colony by royal decree from King Charles II.

As far as A STAND AGAINST EVIL — how about the OTTOMAN Empire?

The Great Turkish War (German: Großer Türkenkrieg) or the War of the Holy League (Turkish: Kutsal was a series of conflicts between the Ottoman Empire and the Holy League consisting of the Habsburg Monarchy, Poland-Lithuania, Venice and Russia.

After a few years of peace, the Ottoman Empire, encouraged by successes in the west of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, attacked the Habsburg Monarchy.

The Turks almost captured Vienna, but John III Sobieski led a Christian alliance that defeated them in the Battle of Vienna (1683), stalling the Ottoman Empire’s hegemony in south-eastern Europe.

A new Holy League was initiated by Pope Innocent XI and encompassed the Holy Roman Empire (headed by Habsburg Austria), Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth and the Venetian Republic in 1684,[2] joined by Russia in 1686.

The second Battle of Mohács (1687) was a crushing defeat for the Sultan. The Turks were more successful on the Polish front and were able to retain Podolia during their battles with the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth.

Russia’s involvement marked the first time the country formally joined an alliance of European powers. This was the beginning of a series of Russo-Turkish Wars, last of which was World War I. As a result of the Crimean campaigns and Azov campaigns, Russia captured the key Ottoman fortress of Azov.
