1917 - USA enters WWI Oh - yeah, that too! I was actually thinking of the Russian Revolution, but yours certainly qualifies.
1066 - William the Conquerer does his conquering. Heh :)
1929 - Stockmarket crash? Ding!
1963 - I'm so going to have the year wrong, but... Kennedy assasination? You got it right :)
1973 - Nixon resignation? (That's a complete guess). Watergate scandal breaks and starts growing. I believe Nixon resigned in 1974. ::checking:: Yup.
1961 - um... setting up the space program: Kennedy's "fly men to the moon in this decade" speech to the joint session of congress? Yeah, that qualifies too. I was thinking Bay of Pigs.
1968 - Assassination of MLK, Assassination of Bobby Kennedy, the 68 Convention in Chicago, Students go nuts all over Europe... Yeah it's a sort of Choose Your Own Big Moment year, isn't it?
