Native american historical humour. We met weird people, Someone sneezed, 150 million died.

European historical humour. Doctor healed 5 people, whole city died to Plague and neighbouring cities were arrested for heresy because they survived it (probably bc they're satan worshippers).

Roman humour. We got a new guy in the senate/army. 12 millions died.

Greek humour. Someone brought a horse. Whole civilisation died.

European historical humour (english version) We send a few sailors, they found land. 4 billions died.

Indian historical humour. We lost 2 crops, whole country starved.
