Who wants a custom history fact? (1 Viewer)

[Ahsoka]

“Custom” as in you give me a time range and I give a fact that happened during that time or close to that time from a book I have But if you pick something from really long ago don’t expect the timing to be close, ancient history dating is pretty vague and sparse. And nothing before 6000 BC because I just know someone’s going to say a billion years ago or something And nothing before 2000 AD

1421- Emporor Yongle of China orders the construction of the famed Forbidden City in the new capital of Beijing
1545 marked the first session of the Catholic Church Council to open the counter reformation. They aimed to uphold core Catholic doctrines, while making reforms to grievances that led to the reformation. It was held in modern day Italy.

Ancient Greece (I can be more specific if needed)

Phillip the II of Macedon (the father of Alexander the Great) defeated Athens and Thebes and tried to unify Greece in 338 BC (for context, he considered Macedon to be Greek, though not all in Greece felt that way).

You peaked my interest now with that book of yours that states all these historic events
Also crazy fact how the construction of the forbidden city happened roughly just 25 years before Hangul officially existed.

1998-The Good Friday agreement ends the Troubles in Northern Ireland. This established Northern Ireland as part of the UK, and established that it could only be changed with a referendum if most of North Ireland was in favor. It also required armed groups to dispose of weapons, released those jailed for violence during the troubles, scaled back British army numbers, established citizenship procedures, and much more.
