In 1763, a Negro slave rebellion led by Coffey broke out in Dutch Guyana. This rebellion is celebrated as the first attempt in the New World by freed black slaves to create a free country for themselves.
in 1836 The beginning of the siege of the Alamo Mission near San Antonio, Texas, by the Mexican army led by General SANTA ANNA. The American colonists defending the mission are captured and shot two weeks later. Americans regard this episode as one of the most heroic moments in their history, and Texas would become a new U.S. state in 1845.
In 1847, during the U.S. war with Mexico (1846-47), a two-day battle at Buena Vista ended with the defeat of the Mexicans, who were again led by SANTA ANNA (despite their significant 3.5 times numerical superiority). The victor, General Zachary TAYLOR, would be elected President of the United States in 2 years.
In 1893, Patent No. 67,207 for “Technological method and kind of construction for an internal combustion power plant” was obtained in Berlin by Rudolf Diesel
In 1903, an agreement was signed by both parties to lease the Guantanamo Bay area from Cuba to the United States “for coal and marine stations”. The term was defined as “for the time required” (for the time required).
in 1941, American Glenn Seaborg obtained a plutonium isotope with mass number 239 as a result of experiments on irradiation of uranium-238 with neutrons in a cyclotron. The new material had excellent characteristics in terms of ease of fission and the method of its production. Since then, plutonium-239 has become an integral part of nuclear and hydrogen bombs.
In 1945, Turkey declared war on Germany and Japan.
In 1945, when 23 U-88s attacked a convoy coming from Murmansk, the U.S. transport Henry Bacon (Liberty-class) set a record of success for air defense for ships of this class, shooting down 3 and damaging 2 planes. However, a little later it was damaged and sunk, becoming the last Allied transport sunk by the Germans in the war. 23 people died, including Captain Alfred Carini.
In 1946, General Tamayuki Yamashita was executed. His execution served as a justification for the so-called “Yamashita Standard”, according to which the commander is responsible for any crimes of his subordinates, even if they were committed without his knowledge.
In 1981, there was an attempted military coup in Spain. Lieutenant Colonel Tejero, leading a group of Civil Guard gendarmes, seized the parliament building during a vote for prime minister (attended by the entire current government). General del Bosque, commander of the military district of Valencia, who was in contact with him, declared a state of emergency in that city and brought tanks into the streets. However, King Juan Carlos, with the support of the other district commanders, refused to recognize the rebellion and at 1 a.m. on February 24 made a televised speech condemning the coup. In the morning, Tejero gradually released all deputies and surrendered.

In 1794, the U.S. Congress approved the construction of six ships to protect American merchant shipping in the Mediterranean. Prior to this, for a number of years the U.S. government had paid tribute to the Pasha of Tripoli for the right to navigate safely in the Mediterranean. Seven years later, the American navy would try its hand in the Tripolitan War of 1801-1805.
The Battle of Horseshoe Bent took place in 1814 in the center of what is now the state of Alabama between U.S. troops (2,000 infantry and 700 cavalry, with guns) and allied Indians (about 500 Cherokee and 100 Creeks) under the general command of Mr. Andrew Jackson against about 1,000 Creeks under the command of Chief Menawa. The battle was preceded by a split of the Creek tribe into the “upper” opponents of American expansion and the “lower” loyalists, which led to a series of armed clashes between Indians and settlers that became known as the Creek War.
The Upper Creeks, also known as the Red Sticks, had built their stronghold in the “horseshoe,” a wooded bend in the Tallapoosa River, and Jackson's force had to cut a path to it. The ensuing bombardment had no effect on the Indian redoubt, and after the assault the battle turned to hand-to-hand fighting that lasted more than 5 hours. In the end about 800 of the “upper” Creeks were killed, about 200 led by Menawa were able to escape and went south to the Seminoles. Jackson lost 50 killed and 154 wounded. This battle ended the Creek War. On Aug. 9, a peace agreement was signed in which the Creeks ceded 92 thousand square miles to the U.S. government and 7.7 thousand square miles to the Cherokees.
It is interesting that 16 years later, almost to the day, on March 28, 1830 Jackson, having already become the president of the USA, “thanked” the Cherokees, having signed the Act on Resettlement of Indians, and more than 4 thousand of them died on the “Road of Tears” to Oklahoma. Among the forced migrants was Junaluska, the leader of the Cherokee band at the Battle of Horseshoe. After several years he returned to his native land on foot and in 1847, at the request of William Holland Thomas, he received American citizenship and a plot of land near present-day Robbinsville, North Carolina, where he died in 1868.
in 1945, the last launches of Fau-2 missiles were made against Great Britain. In the morning, one missile struck London, hitting a high-rise apartment building and killing 134 people. In the afternoon, another missile was fired, hitting Orpington (now south-east London) and killing one person.
in 1999, on the fourth day of NATO's Operation "Merciful Angel" in Yugoslavia, Serbian air defenses shot down the Lockheed Corporation's most classified aircraft, the F117A Stealth, using Soviet S-125 SAMs.

in -56 BC. Gaius Julius Caesar, Marcus Licinius Crassus and Gnaeus Pompey formed the First Triumvirate.
in 1932, amid economic distress, a mob of thousands, presenting a petition demanding an investigation into government corruption, seized and vandalized the Colonial Building, which housed Parliament and government in St. John's, the capital of the Dominion of Newfoundland. On the same day, Prime Minister Richard Squires, who was captured by the mob but managed to escape, resigned and a snap election was called. However, two years later the elected government was dissolved and until 1949, when Newfoundland became the tenth province of Canada, the island was governed by a London-appointed Commission of Government.
In 1933, U.S. President Roosevelt signed Executive Order No. 6102, according to which all individuals and legal entities in the United States (including foreigners) were obliged to exchange gold for paper money at a price of $20.66 per troy ounce by May 1. Private individuals could keep no more than $100 worth of gold, as well as collector coins. Evasion was punishable by a fine of up to $10000 and/or imprisonment of up to 10 years. After the collection of gold was completed, its official price was raised to $35 per ounce. The gold was then sent to the Fort Knox National Gold Depository, which was completed by the end of 1936.
In 1943, the Normandy squadron, having shot down two Fokkers, opened the account of its combat victories. In total, French pilots on the Soviet-German front made more than 5249 sorties, 869 air battles, shot down 273 and damaged 80 enemy planes. 4 pilots of the squadron were awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. In 1944, for successful actions during the forcing of the Neman River by the Soviet troops the regiment received the second name - “Neman”.
In 1945, on April 5, 1945, Soviet Foreign Minister Vyacheslav Molotov received Japanese Ambassador to the USSR Naotake Sato and made him a statement on the denunciation of the neutrality pact between the USSR and Japan.
In 2003, American troops entered Baghdad.

Yet Americans are told they live in the Land of the Free. How does that square with a potus issuing a dictate they give up their gold or face imprisonment?

In 1241, at the Battle of Legnica, the mongols defeated the army of Henry II the Pious, which included troops from Greater and Lesser Poland, Upper and Lower Silesia, Moravia, the Teutonic Order, the Templar Order, the Duchy of Austria and individual German knights, as well as militias of townspeople and miners (the Czechs were late to the battle, except for the vanguard).
Henry II fell in battle.
In 1609, King Philip III issued a decree expelling all Moriscos (Moors converted to Catholicism) to North Africa. In 1609-19, 272,000 (85% of the total) were expelled, mostly from Aragon and Valencia, which severely damaged the Spanish economy and contributed to the rise of the “Berberian pirate” states in the Maghreb. Only what the moriscos could carry on their backs was allowed to be taken, all real estate was confiscated. The initiator was the Archbishop of Valencia, Patriarch of Antioch, St. (in the future) Juan de Ribera.
In 1672 the Truce of Andrusov with Poland was confirmed. Russia secured territories comparable to England.
In 1865, by 4 PM, General Robert E. Lee signed the surrender of his Army of Northern Virginia, effectively ending the U.S. Civil War.
in 1945, the surrender of the garrison of Königsberg.
The completion of the assault was marked by a salute of the highest category - in Moscow 324 guns made 24 artillery salvos, the medal “For the capture of Koenigsberg” was established, 98 military units were named “Koenigsberg”
in 1992, a court in Miami, Florida, convicted former Panamanian President Manuel Noriega on eight charges of drug trafficking and extortion. Noriega was arrested after the U.S. intervention in Panama in 1989
