Good thread idea, let's educate ourselves with interesting facts about the past!

Interesting information about Ancient Egypt, did you know that under the pharaoh Akhenaten, the capital was briefly changed to the city of Amarna, then quickly abandoned upon his death. This largely had to do with the advent of one of the first monotheistic religions being rejected by Ancient Egyptian society.

It's really nice how pumped the audience gets after it

There was a war in 19th century China that had 30-50 MILLION people die, and was caused by a man who believed he was the brother of Jesus Christ. That's a lot of people, for one country alone, in the 19th century.

During WWI, there was a battle between Germany and Russia for a fortress in Poland. The Germans launched a poison gas attack which took most of the soldiers in the Russian garrison out of action, but less than 100 of those who were still alive commenced a counter attack, spitting out bits of their own lungs and blood. The Germans were caught completely off-guard and retreated, scared by the sight of charging half-dead Russian soldiers.

So back in the 1920's there was a pharma company that shipped out a poison as medicine and it was up to the Food and Drug Administration to recover all 240 gallons of this poison that was all over the country thanks to unreachable traveling salesmen and stuff. The situation actually did not fall under the FDA's jurisdiction at the time, but because it was technically mislabeled as an elixir, they had the authority to recall it. In the end, it killed 130 people but they say with the amount that was shipped out, it would have been 4000 or something like that had they not been able to do anything.

After this event they passed laws that the FDA can oversee all food and drugs and cosmetics and this is why the FDA has so much power nowadays.
