History is mostly full of boring stories about people going about their daily lives. 

But every couple of years or decades major events unfold, throwing that boring routine into chaos. Be it world war, economic turmoil or natural disasters, our lives don't stay immune from the world for too long. 

History, as it's taught in school, often bores kids and for good reason, most of the time students are just reading about the past. But not today. Today we've got pictures to go along with the events of history. 

So sit back, strap in, and get ready for a ride of a lifetime.
