A fun and Historical Game it will have to stop once we get to 2011 or 2012 but it will have tons of neat info up until then.
so heres all I could find on 1
If you really cant find anything corresponding to the number, find something at least within the decade close to it.
AD 1 is the first year of the Anno Domini era and of the Common Era. In 525 (the consulship of Probus Junior [Flavius Probus]), a Christian monk named Dionysius Exiguus stated that the incarnation of Jesus occurred 525 years earlier.[1] Whether Dionysius regarded "incarnation" as Jesus' birth or conception, and whether Dionysius placed it in 1 BC or AD 1 are debated by modern scholars. Nevertheless, these same scholars believe Jesus was actually born a few years earlier, during this decade.

4. Um...somebody was getting killed by Roman Soldiers, or one of the other less than cuddly armies of the day expanding/defending their territory.

Apparently exile was great for his inspiration, because:
9 - Ovid completes Ibis (single poem).

11 - Germania Minor and the Rhine river are captured by Germanicus (named after his father, who also beat the crap out of Germania)
I thought this was interesting; on the Wikipedia page it says he was the "last republican."

12 - Annius Rufus is appointed Prefect of Judea.
Augustus orders a major invasion of Germany beyond the Rhine.
Germanicus and Gaius Fonteius Capito become Roman Consuls.
Quirinius returns from Judea to become a counselor to Tiberius.
The Armenian Artaxiad Dynasty is overthrown by the Romans.
ALSO!
Ovid stops writing Fasti because of the lack of resources (being far from the libraries of Rome). He completes 6 books that detail festivals found in the Roman Calendar.
