2020

2020 was a leap year that started on Wednesday of the Gregorian Calendar (Dominical Letter ED). It is the 20th year of the 21st century and the third millennium and the 1st year of the 2020's Decade.

2020 was heavily defined as the year of the COVID-19 pandemic, which caused mass cancellations and delays and one of the largest global economic recessions since the great depression. Many movies were postponed, delayed, or even cancelled because of the pandemic, and ATBW Store reduced its hours to 12 PM to 6 PM with a capacity limit of only ten people to slow the spread, sometimes even closing fully to stop the spread. ATBW Theme Parks was closed throughout the year because of the pandemic but it was temporarily open during the summer with strict social distancing and mask mandates and a capacity limit of only 100 people. Caltrose25V5 was prominent in April when it attacked CCTV Online and Martha Woods Entertainment was formed on July 13 and became the 12th major ATBW Blog company. The ATBW Network Migration also started on June 2 and was completed on January 30, 2021.
