History, we want to write it, not repeat it.
One of my favorite classes in school right now is World History, and I have found a lot more than just the dinosaur bones during my research.

July 14th is "Bastille Day." This is the day the French stormed the Bastille Prison in the French Revolution.
+ Motto was Liberty, Equality and Fraternity
+ Maximillion (His name was spelled different.) executed himself by people's domand.
+ Louis the Sixteenth was quite childish.
+ They showed that they are stronger than the king Louis the Sixteenth. (Search up March of Women if ya haven't.)
+ Tennis-Court Oath... In a Hand-Ball Court.
+ A Military General named "Napeleon" got involved.

The Statue of Liberty is made of Copper.

World War 1 was once named "The Great War."
+ Korea wasn't always split up between North and South
+ Korea was controlled by Russia before Japan won and took over Korea.

Leonardo Da Vinci could write with both of his hands, and write BACKWORDS. (He also drew concepts of the Parachute and other neat things YEARS before they were invented.)

Bannanas appearently had seeds in them...?

Got more to add to the list of facts? Then go ahead!

During the national day, the french are not celebrating the Bastille day (july 14th 1789), but the july 14th 1790 (the king made a biiiiig party, and he thought thay if he was doing it, the french would stop the revolution). :)
