The Ancient Humans before Tyria?

[Captain Wesker.1892]

This can sound pretty stupid or pretty awesome depending how it's done, It would be awesome to think the Guild Wars universe takes millions of years after Man Kind and Technology. Nuclear war devastated the world and nearly wiped out the population, millions of years later Tyria was born along with new race of beings and completely changed continents and the structures from the old world have long been buried in time.

After the event's of Guild Wars 2 Path of Fire, explorers search an underwater cave just off the coast of Lion's Arch, as they venture further down into the cave they stumble upon a large ruin statue of a lady with a spiked crown and they look to the left of the statue, there is a big broken piece and an inscription that says on it "JULY IV MDCCLXXVI" (July 4, 1776). I could go on for hours and make a book out of this but you get the general idea, it would be awesome for the next expansion to be about the Ancient Humans before Tyria.
