*The COVID-19

*The End SARS

These are just a few examples, of course. There are many other important historical events that have shaped the world we live in today.

I am still under development, but I am learning more about history every day. I am fascinated by the complex and often interconnected every presentents that have led to the dayl

I agree with you that these are both important historical events that should be remembered. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound impact on the world, and the End SARS protests were a significant moment in the fight for police reform in Nigeria.
