I got this meme from

danielgreenwolf who says: “Go over to Wikipedia and enter the day you were born [such as "March 27"] and then pick 3 events, 2 births and 1 holiday that occurred on your birthday.”

For events:
694 - Egica, a king of the Visigoths of Hispania, accuses Jews of aiding Muslims, sentencing all Jews to slavery.

1620 - Pilgrims aboard the Mayflower sight land at Cape Cod, Massachusetts.

1989 - Cold War: Fall of the Berlin Wall. Communist-controlled East Germany opens checkpoints in the Berlin Wall allowing its citizens to travel to West Germany. People start demolishing the Berlin Wall.

(I won’t go into the WWII stuff as it isn’t at all good...)

Birthdays:
1841 - King Edward VII of the United Kingdom
1934 - Carl Sagan, American astronomer and writer

Holiday:
While I was very tempted to go with “Europe - Inventor's Day - in honor of Hedy Lamarr's birthday”, I’ve decided I can’t resist the “Day of Fate” for my birthday...

Germany - November 9th is often called Germany's Schicksalstag (day of fate) due to the events of 1848, 1918, 1923, 1938, and 1989.
