The Year Without Sun: The Volcanic Eruption That Changed History (AD 536)

In AD 536, the world was thrown into darkness. A massive volcanic eruption sent ash into the sky, blocking sunlight for over 18 months. The result? Crops failed, famine spread across continents, empires weakened, and millions faced starvation. Some historians call it the worst year to be alive.

This video explores the mystery of AD 536, often referred to as The Year Without a Summer. From villages in Britannia to the Byzantine Empire and far beyond, humanity faced chilling skies, dim sunlight, and terrifying hunger. The sun appeared as a dull copper disc, temperatures dropped, and life itself seemed on the edge of collapse.

We’ll walk through how ordinary families struggled to survive during this catastrophic volcanic winter—rationing grain, foraging wild plants, and clinging to hope under a sky that refused to brighten. It’s not just history—it’s a human story of endurance, fear, and resilience.
