Il suffit de se perdre un moment dans Wikipedia pour apprendre des trucs fabuleux, inutiles, précieux, vitaux ou juste incongrus…

Aujour’dhui au bout de quelque clics j’ai appris que le 7 février avait vu les évènements capitaux suivants :

Events

* 457 – Leo I becomes emperor of the Byzantine Empire.
* 1795 – The 11th Amendment to the United States Constitution is ratified.
* 1898 – Émile Zola is brought to trial for libel for publishing J’Accuse.
* 1904 – A fire in Baltimore, Maryland destroys over 1,500 buildings in 30 hours.
* 1914 – Charlie Chaplin first appears as “The Tramp”, when his first film Kid Auto Races at Venice is released at Keystone Studios.
* 1979 – Pluto moves inside Neptune’s orbit for the first time since either was discovered.
* 1992 – The Maastricht Treaty is signed, leading to the creation of the European Union.
