Dinosaurs are a catagory of creatures of the Clade Dinosauria which first emerged around 250 Million Years ago in the Triassic period. However due to recent discoveries, it created a large divide among the Paleontologist communities on whether they should still be classified as inherently reptile or something completely new.
Dinosaurs came to be the dominant form of large, scaled, land dwelling life forms across all of earth's major continents through the Jurassic and Cretaceous period. Dinosaurs were and are the biggest animals ever to live on land, however what counts as "The" biggest is often up in debate by the Scientific community, usually this ends in flamewars between Sauropod-Fanboys and Cetacean-Fanboys (Yes they do exist), but the more neutral term is Sauropods=Land and Whales=Ocean....kind of like the relationship between Star Wars and Star Trek.
They are regarded as awesome for several reasons....
- They appeal to the sensational because they're "monsters", but unlike most they actually did exist.
- It's also been postulated that dinosaurs were the inspiration for dragons (with people discovering dinosaur bones and making up stories about them, though that is debatable).
- Some of the largest land carnivorous dinosaurs are larger (As in much larger) then the largest living land mammal, the African Elephant
- The largest Sauropods are big enough that they can be classified as "Kaiju-Size" and could furthermore cause mini-earthquakes and create sonic booms with their tails
- One of the largest land mammals of all time are still classified as "Small-Sized" by Sauropod standards
- If the Meteorite did not hit Earth, then it would be the Troodon (One of the many 'intelligent' Dinosaurs) that would be building civilizations and spaceships
Tl;dr, Dinosaurs are NOT to be fucked with.
Most lines of dinosaurs, however were extinguished during the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event some 66 million years ago. The only survivors went on to evolve into modern-day birds. Oh, how the mighty have fallen.
It is surprising the God-Emperor didn't engineer himself a T-Rex to ride on. It would have been both retarded and sweeeeeetttttt.
