As February 10th unfolds, we embark on a journey through its diverse tapestry of historical events, cultural celebrations, and individual achievements across the globe:
Historical Echoes:
• 1258: The Siege of Baghdad ends with the surrender of the last Abbasid caliph to Hulegu Khan, a prince of the Mongol Empire, marking the end of the Islamic Golden Age.
• 1306: Robert the Bruce murders John Comyn in front of the high altar of Greyfriars Church in Dumfries, sparking the revolution in the Wars of Scottish Independence
• 1763: The Treaty of Paris was signed between France and Britain, concluding the Seven Years' War (North American phase known as the French and Indian War) and resulting in Britain's acquisition of many of France's territories.
• 1837: Russian writer and poet Alexander Pushkin is killed in a duel defending his wife's honor, leaving behind a legacy of literary masterpieces.
• 1945: World War II continues to cast its shadow:
Journalists are killed in a helicopter crash while covering the war in Vietnam.
The American forces liberated the Santo Tomas Internment Camp in Manila, freeing thousands of American and Filipino prisoners of war held by the Japanese.
• 1996: World chess champion Garry Kasparov begins a six-round match against Deep Blue, a chess-playing computer built by IBM, in which Kasparov claimed a 4-2 victory (though Deep Blue won a rematch the following year).
Cultural Celebrations:
• Sri Lanka: Independence Day: Celebrated with parades, traditional dances, and cultural events as Sri Lanka gained independence from the British Empire in 1948.
