2018 Anniversaries

Manach · 2018-01-10 11:27:19

2018 marks the centenary of the WWI Armistice of 1918. It also marks the start of another war, Thirty Years one (1618-1648 and I'd recommend the book of the name by CV Wedgwood). Any other historic events of interest?

The election of 1918 saw change for Ireland and also the historic electing of countess Markievicz.
