    It’s not arbitrary. Just take a good history book, look out for the years and try to think why that year was chosen. You might even look if the generation time spans are different in the US and Europe.

        I just adjusted to your style of writing: Shouting around that this doesn’t make sense. Full stop. No more, no less.

        I answered it does make sense. Full stop. And gave you hints how to get it by yourself.

        However, you need to invest some brain thoughts by yourself. I‘m not teaching you every little aspect of generations and why they named as is. I would but not in your style of shouting. What is this lazy social media attitude? Or just bad style?

        It wasn’t either of those

        They shouldn’t be expected list out the historical events for each generation, it makes sense to just say events happened that shaped an age group of people

        I think their point on the year was bad though because people would need to be alive for the event to matter

        Like 9/11 wasn’t in 96
