If you could have personally witnessed one event in history, what would you want to have seen?

Meera,

I would actually loved to have witnessed two things.

A) The Battle of Trafalgar on 21 October, 1805.

B) The Japanese Surrender on board the USS Missouri. Specifically here (among others) is the goof up the Canadian Colonel Lawrence Moore Cosgrave pulled when signing the document. Because Canada had been represented as a combatant in the Pacific Theatre Colonel Cosgrave, was assigned the duty of signing for Canada. In his haste to have his name recorded in history, he signed his name in the wrong place, below the line. This caused others signing after him to place their signatures also in the wrong place. It was later said that he was suffering from a severe headache and that he was blind in one eye. An honest mistake and Colonel Cosgrave was in fact a very diligent warrior. He had received the Croix de Guerre in 1915 for his gallantry during WW I.

Fun question....star coming,

Interesting question - many of the answers are some I would give myself - however, knowing how the viking inscriptions were placed on stones from Colorado Springs to Murphy's Creek Arkansa, particularly at Runestone State Park in Oklahoma - as well as the Kensington Stone in Minnesota - How half the Zuni indian language is clearly cognate with Basque - stuff like that - the Indian Mound builders - and so on - as an expert in ancient Futhark and Ogham , I have studied the inscriptions, and along with known history passed on by the local Indians - the idea that these are hoaxes is absurd - besides, anything that knocks accepted wisdom into a ****** hat is probably right.

I would like to see: What Jesus did, when he was a teenager - middle age! Because there is no history of him in the Bible during that time frame. Some say he was in India/Tibet/Himalayan range learning the art of meditation with great Masters. There are records about his presence in one Tibetian Monastery, he took the ancient trade route between Persia and India to reach there.. I believe in it, just to have a proof of concept that's all.

Katham Katham!

The Battle of Thermopylae. 300 against hundreds of thousands. Changed the course of history.

The Battle of Issus, Alexander the Great ftw xD

The events happened in our country [india] on 14th, 15th, & 16th,of August ,1947.

I like to see the eclairs of the freedom fighters.

Gen.KS Thimmayya, the Army chief declaring that all intruders were driven out from every inch of the whole of Kashmir state (so that we can have road built to link Afghanistan).
