1588 Armada sinks hilariously

I am sorry, I have a hard enough time remembering family members birthdays and the like, so no matter how smart I am, besides a few here and there (and at this time of night/day...1.41am Florida, 6.41am U.K) I am awful with specific days/dates and not years. Nice input though, and certainly a lot trickier than years.

Alright, without cheating (seriously, don't open another window and type in Wikipedia or Google, otherwise the thread will be useless).....what happened on these dates in history........just a few significant dates from the past thousand years of recorded human history, and I am doing this largely for the younger Blues. Like I said already this could get ruined almost immediately, but I thought I would give it ago. LOOK AT THE OP ONLY, then reply, as if you scroll down you will undoubtedly see the answers (hopefully) and thus end the thread.

NEW DATES BLUES!! Some tough ones that took some thinking. GOOD LUCK!
