FAMOUS EVENTS
First savings bank opens (1816).
First presidential visit to Europe made by President Woodrow WIlsow (1918).
US-Mexico border redifinied by President Lyndon Johnson and President Gustavo Diaz Ordaz (1964).
First Susan B. Anthony dollar coins minted (1978).
English seaman Francis Drake sets out from Plymouth, England, with five ships and 164 men on a mission to raid Spanish holdings on the Pacific coast of the New World and explore the Pacific Ocean. Three years later, Drake's return to Plymouth marked the first circumnavigation of the earth by a British explorer (1577).
Under the care of Robert Cushman, the first American furs to be exported from the continent leave for England aboard the Fortune (1621).
Dutch navigator Abel Tasman becomes the first European explorer to sight the South Pacific island group now known as New Zealand. In his sole attempt to land, several of Tasman's crew were killed by warriors from a South Island tribe, who interpreted the Europeans' exchange of trumpet signals as a prelude to battle. A few weeks earlier, Tasman had discovered Tasmania, off the southeast coast of Australia. Tasman had named the island Van Diemen's Land, but, like the Tasman Sea between New Zealand and Australia, it was later renamed Tasmania in the explorer's honor (1642).
During the Sino-Japanese War, Nanking, the capital of China, falls to Japanese forces, and the Chinese government flees to Hankow, further inland along the Yangtze River (1937).
