Good post Fuji.
I guess if Einstein had not isolated the ''atom'' we wouldnt have lap top computers or anything digital. Its possible we would have computers, but they would be the size of two refrigerators, and would probably generate enough btu's to heat a house.

Again, the printing press as it got the knowledge of mankind out of the hands of the Church and into the normal mans hand who could read. Discoveries after that increased exponentially and the Church went snakey, making a list of that no one could have or read. One list actually lasting until the the mid 20th century.
1492 - Columbus discovered America. Imagine the world to-day if Columbus didn't discover America.
Not a single event but the British Empire definitely had the largest impact on human history. Maybe the defeat of the Spanish Armada by Sir Francis Drake.

The French Revolution can actually trace its genesis back to the Battle of Agincourt.
I agree. As much as religion has messed up many parts of the world, it has also shaped it in many ways. I also think the invention of the Internet.
Most evolutionary biologists believe that the extinction of the dinosaurs was what allowed us mammals to expand from occupying a very small niche to where we are today.
I didn't know Einstein isolated the atom. I thought it was guys like Bohr. Was Einstein really big on that issue?
Wha? Because without the press most people wouldn't be able to read and understand the internet. Just sayin'.
There is so much wrong in this post, that it is hard to correct. Start with Rutherford and Bohr, though.
That's not even the most important event in the American Revolutionary war, never mind world history.
