Certain leftist editorializing is noted:
"1917 Russian Revolution creates the first successful, long-term revolutionary state." when discussing a USSR that has passed into history, ignoring the fact that the 1776 American revolution did so and formed a revolutionary state that continues to this day.

The Exodus and giving of Old Testament law.
Battle of Hattin in 1187.
The Assassination of Archduke Ferdinand.
