I think of WWI, the Inter-War period, and WWII as three separate periods of time and they cover about 40 years.
I think of The Louisiana Purchase (1803), the start of the Monroe Doctrine (1823), and the Mexican-American War (1846-1848) as all happening about the same time, despite covering about 45 years (before double checking just now, I could’ve sworn the Mexican-American War was in the 1830’s, and that Monroe was president in ~1816, which only drives the point home more).
I doubt we’ll feel the difference by 2100, but between 2200 and 2300 is when I expect that blending to happen.
I think it depends on when you look back from.
