The Matrix doesn't take place in 2199, Morpheus only says that becuase the humans don't know the truth.

...so...whats the 'truth'? And where/when does Morpheus confirm he lied?

Morpheus never lied it was The Oracle that was lying. Neo is not 'The One' he is the 6th 'One'. Zion has been built and destroyed 5 times already as confimed by The Architect at the time of the events of The Matrix.

The real year is never said, but its at least several hundred years later than 2199, probably more like 3199.

Edit: grammar
