Wikipedia: In history, the early modern era of modern history follows the late Middle Ages. Historians refer to the period beginning from approximately AD 1500 and lasting to around AD 1800. The events include the first European colonies, the rise of strong centralized governments, and the beginnings of recognizable nation states that are the direct antecedents of today's states.
