As one artist on DeviantART points out, ''"when we say something happened 'a thousand years ago', do we literally mean the year 1012? Probably not. You’re probably talking about a ballpark time period from around 900 C.E. to about 1400 C.E.; about a 500 year timeframe. So even though the defeat of Sombra and the banishment of NMM are both referred to as happening 'a thousand years ago', they could have occurred as much as 500 years apart." ''

It's the best explanation I've found so far for what happened then.
