Here’s a cool thought; if you have a good family memory from childhood... say, early 1980’s Christmas...
Go back to that.
I wonder if reality matches the memory? Know what I mean? Can’t help but wonder how much a memory is changed for unknown desire.

He blamed the Jews for a lot of things. Losing that war was one of the many things. There is a good documentary on Netflix on WWII. Very interesting stuff I never knew. It has 10 episodes. I highly recommend it. If you have interest in WWII like I do, you would like this one.
Lincoln's delivery of his second inaugural address. I'd want every candidate for every major elected position to witness that moment and hear his words.

Agreed. Anyone watch the third season of Twin Peaks? Episode 8 was absolutely terrifying...
The beginning of the Universe as we know it. That way I could tell who is correct.
The debates about the US starting the Revolutionary war.
George Washington stepping down after the war to go back to farming. Probably the President who didn't pine for the job.
So much history would actually be anticlimatic watching it without knowing the outcome.

It's a strange season, for sure... Kinda plodding at times. Stick with it. It's gets downright terrifying. (IMO). David Lynch has a way of freaking me the F out though. Let me know when you finish episode 8....you will see why I mentioned it where I did in this thread.
Come on, tell me I'm the only one who wants to see the chicken vs the egg Exposed?
Mine is more personal. My 2nd great Grandfather was temporarily living on the 3rd floor of the Perkins Hotel in Plattsmouth, Nebraska while his wife and children had moved to Omaha, anticipating his transfer by a couple of months.
He came to the room late one night, and the story told in the newspaper was that he felt ill and opened his window and then fell 40 plus feet to the ground. He hit a large ice box, which ws stored out side behind the hotel and it saved him, but he later lost his leg which a shattered beyond healing. One side of my family says that he was having an affair and may have been pushed out the window by the woman's jealous husband, the story of which was only told after my 2 greats Grandma passed.
I would be a fly on the wall in that hotel room to see what actually happened.

Nice very nice post.
Very few imho know that they did what they did in the Beginning was because of poverty.
den,
It's impressive that you even know who Lloyd George was! However, I'll offer an alternate view as some historians believe that Germany could have paid the reparations, but of course, always sought to escape the payment of them and claimed they couldn't do so. We all know of the wheel barrows full of cash needed to buy a loaf of bread at one point, but the Weimar Republic was poised to make an economic turnaround before Hitler's rise to power.
As for how to stop Germany, they should have completed the victory in total war. The Armistice allowed Germany the illusion that the politicians sold them out, which Hitler utilized in his propaganda. Bismark let representatives of the new rulers (The Kaiser fled) surrender, when he should have done so. FDR and Chamberlain wanted to leave no such illusions after the 2nd World War.
So many good answers, I don’t find many that are interested in what I’m interested in:
Caesar for sure crossing the Rubicon.
“Alea Iacta Ist” The Die Is Cast
Caesar being murdered by the senate 44BC March 15, The IDES of March and also my birthday.
Alexander addressing his troops at Opis.

Battle of Trasimene
Watching the moment Hitler walked his first step into Argentina.
Experiencing the City of Rome and the biggest Gladiatorial games event.
Living a day in the city of Tenochtitlán.
The Lone Viking on the bridge defending the Viking armies retreat.
Listen to Aristotle teach for a day.
Spend several days walking at different periods through ancient times before any mammals and witness all the creatures huge and small roaming the Earth.
Walk Hadrians Wall in It’s completed state coast to coast. ( I’m going to do this soon I swear)
I’ve always been obsessed with ww2 dogfighting, watching a complete dog fight(s) Battle of Britain.
Hanging out in the Roman bath in Bath England back in the day.
Walking through a town that just got ravaged by the Black Plague.
Watch the Mongols breach the walls of the Chinese capital.
How the ancient cities in the Amazon jungle were in their prime.
So many amazing things and periods in history. I’m particular on Ancient Greek and more specifically ancient Roman cultures. It’s just amazing.
