The '''Battle of Mons''' was the first major clash between the British and German troops in the First World War, taking place 23 August 1914 near the city of Mons, Belgium. Though the British managed to inflict a disproportionate number of casualties on the German troops that outnumbered them, they were eventually forced to retreat. One of the fallen British soldiers was Private Arthur Harris, who had penned a letter days earlier detailing his experiences in Belgium and his eagerness to defeat the Germans. Some of the surviving British soldiers claimed to have been saved by angelic figures that shielded the troops from enemy fire and guided them to safety. | |||
'''Manfred Albrecht Freiherr von Richthofen''' (1892 – 1918), more commonly known as the '''Red Baron''', was a fighter pilot with the German Air Force during World War I. He is considered one of the most renowed and feared pilot, being officially credited with 80 air combat victories. Due to his abilities, rumors arose that he was being protected by a supernatural force. | |||
'''Alexandra Feodorovna''' (née Princess '''Alix of Hesse and by Rhine''', 1872 – 1918) was the wife of Tsar Nicholas II and the last Empress of Russia from 1894 until her husband's forced abdication in 1917. She was the mother of Grand Duchesses Olga, Tatiana, Maria, Anastasia and of the Tsesarevich Alexei. | |||
After her only son, Alexei, became sick from hemophilia, a family friend advised them to ask for the help of Grigori Rasputin. After successfully "healing" Alexei, Rasputin became a trusted friend, and even gave advice on the decisions the royal family made. He would continue to hold influence over Alexandra and Nicholas until his assassination in 1916. | |||
The Russian Revolution of the following year led to the end of the Tsarist regime and by 1918, Alexandra and her family had been put under house arrest in [[Yekaterinburg]]. On the night of 17 July, the former Tsarina and her family were taken to the basement of [[Ipatiev House]] by members of the [[Templars|Templar Order]] intent on stealing the family's [[Precursor box]]. Alexandra and her husband were the first victims, per the orders of [[Yakov Sverdlov]]. After the massacre of the imperial family, Anastasia, who had managed to escape and became the only survivor, retrieved one of Alexandra's bracelets while escaping Ipatiev House. The bracelet had been engraved with the initials of their family members. | |||
'''Cudjoe's Town''' was a Maroon settlement in western Jamaica. Established in 1690, the settlement was led by the Akan warrior Cudjoe, and through his leadership, they managed to fight British colonial forces to a standstill in the 1730s, forcing Governor Edward Trelawny to offer them a peace treaty. Signed in 1739, the treaty secured the land and autonomy for the Maroons. | '''Cudjoe's Town''' was a Maroon settlement in western Jamaica.
