What’s Your Favorite Event in History?

[Saint Zanders]

Hello everyone! I’m reaching out from curiosity to see what events in world history you all are the most interested in / have studied the most. I’m majoring to become a history teacher and enjoy all kinds, and am eager to learn about things I don’t already know!

My favorite “era”, rather than event, really, is probably the colonization period of the United States — from when they settled, to a little after they created their government and gained freedom from the Old World. I also find the Roman Empire to be fascinating! Hope to see some responses!

WW1, I love studying war and for me WW1 is the most interesting war to study for all the new shit they were trying at the time.

[The New California Republic]

The Big Bang.

[Zionia Kai 2]

The day we became homo sapiens and seperated from the primitive monkey brains that we once were.

[Ifreann]

The sinking of Doggerland. Just think, but for the Storegga Slidenot really, it was rising sea levels France could have just marched up and conquered Britain and we wouldn't be having any of this Brexit nonsense.

[Pacomia]

The day we became homo sapiens and seperated from the primitive monkey brains that we once were.

In contrast, as a time traveler from the year 4931, my favourite historical event is when we reverted back to being monkeys.

In all seriousness, though, probably the entire Cold War. It’s just so interesting.

There wasn't actually a specific point in time that Homo sapiens sapiens suddenly existed.

The Holocaust.

Without it, we wouldn't have the inspiring and uplifting stories of the Jewish resistance in Europe, the Fareyniktes, the JCO/ŻOB, the names of the brave combatants of the Warsaw Uprising (that we know of), and everything inbetween. The resurgance of the Jewish people in both Europe and the Middle East thereafter is a motivating cause. Moreover, coming to terms with Jewish history is not only important, but necessary if Jews are to move forward as a people into modern times, and not be eternally haunted by the past. A true test of the faith.

I can bet you with certainty if you were to do a topic such as WW2 or WW1 then the best way I can think of (For HSers) is to open up with interesting and frankly funny facts. Such as the Christmas event that happened in WW1. The reason I suggest this is most students have a general Idea about what happened in WW1 or WW2 so presenting them with facts they'd never even think happened is a good way to interest a generally bored student.

12th of May 1982. BCE.

The time when Aztecs reigned in Mesoamerica, I mean, it's a very interesting topic to learn about, a culture so radically different to us.

I know I meant when all apes destined to become homo sapiens became homo sapiens

hahahahahahahahaha a political joke

[Derika]

Possibly the Second World War, or the Cold War. Both are very interesting, and many events sprawled out of each of them.

Current events, lol.

[Diopolis]

The battle of lepanto.

[United Muscovite Nations]

Probably the most interesting is the First World War.
