The Iraq Inquiry has a publish date. Here's how the world changed since it was announced

Sir John Chilcot has announced his report into the Iraq War will not be published until June or July 2016.

The Chilcot Inquiry was announced on 15 June 2009, which was a long time ago, as we're sure you're aware.

It's 2,327 days.

Let's take you back to the world when the inquiry was announced:

Politics and world events:

Gordon Brown was Prime Minister and Barack Obama had only been inaugurated as US president a few months prior.

The SNP had five MPs.

The Australian Prime Minister was Kevin Rudd, who would be suceeded by Julia Gillard, himself again, Tony Abott, and Malcolm Turnbull.

The Boko Haram insurgency and Syrian Civil War are also yet to occur, as is the earthquake in Haiti, the Leveson inquiry and the 2012 Olympic Games in London.

Arts and tech:

The Arctic Monkeys album ‘Humbug’ hadn’t yet been released, neither had the film Avatar, or the iPhone 3GS.

Android had yet to celebrate an anniversary, as had Spotify. Oasis had yet to split up, and Pixar had yet to release Up, Toy Story 3, Cars 2, Brave, Monsters University and Inside Out.

The most recently released Harry Potter film was The Order of the Phoenix.

Minecraft had only started development a few months prior and The Sims 3 had just been released.

'Selfie' is yet to enter the Oxford English Dictionary. Michael Jackson, Patrick Swayze and Farrah Fawcett are all still alive.

Snapchat and Instagram do not yet exist, and neither do iPads.

Sport:

Danny Welbeck, Gary Cahill, Jack Wilshere, Leighton Baines and James Milner were yet to make their England football debuts when the inquiry was announced and Lionel Messi had yet to win his first Ballon D’or. Portsmouth were still in the Premier League and Southampton had just been promoted from League Two. David Beckham was still an England international and was at AC Milan.

In rugby, Courtney Lawes and Ben Youngs had yet to make their England debuts, as has Greg Laidlaw for Scotland, Jonny Sexton for Ireland. Sam Warburton made his debut on 6 June 2009.

Rory McIlroy had just made his first Master’s appearance in April.

In tennis, Milos Raonic finished 2009 ranked 373 and Laura Robson was 15 when the inquiry was announced, having just received a wildcard into Wimbledon.

Brawn GP had yet to have their first start in Formula 1.
