This week on Christories, we're talking about the THE OLYMPICS! The Olympic Games originated in ancient Greece nearly 3,000 years ago and were first recorded in 776 BCE in Olympia. They were held every 4 years, a period known as an Olympiad, in honor of Zeus, the king of the Greek gods. Only freeborn Greek men were allowed to compete in the ancient games. The modern Olympic Games were revived by French educator Baron Pierre de Coubertin in the late 19th century. The first modern Olympics took place in Athens in 1896, featuring 280 participants from 13 nations. Today, the Olympics are the world's foremost sports competition, with over 200 nations participating.
The five Olympic rings symbolize the union of the five inhabited continents and the meeting of athletes from around the world. The modern Olympic flame is lit at the ancient site of Olympia and then relayed to the host city. The marathon was inspired by the ancient Greek soldier Pheidippides. The first Winter Olympics were held in Chamonix, France, in 1924. Women first competed in the modern Olympics in 1900 in Paris. Olympic gold medals are actually made mostly of silver, with only about six grams of gold plating.
THIS YEAR the Olympics are being held in Paris! Who are you rooting for? Comment below!

This week on Christories, we're talking about the THE BILL OF RIGHTS! The Bill of Rights, the first ten amendments to the United States Constitution, was ratified on December 15, 1791. It was created to protect individual liberties and limit government power. Key figures like James Madison played a crucial role in drafting these amendments, addressing the concerns of Anti-Federalists who feared a too-powerful central government. The Bill of Rights guarantees fundamental rights such as freedom of speech, religion, and the press, the right to bear arms, protection against unreasonable searches and seizures, and rights to fair trials, among others.
TELL US YOUR FAVORITE PART! DID YOU KNOW THESE RIGHTS?! HAPPY 4TH OF JULY EVERYONE!

This week on Christories, we're talking about the THE FIRST GAY PRESIDENT OF USA!!! ๐ James Buchanan, the 15th President of the United States, served from 1857 to 1861. Born in Pennsylvania in 1791, he had a long political career that included roles as a congressman, senator, and diplomat before his presidency. Buchanan is often criticized for his inability to address the growing sectional tensions that eventually led to the Civil War.
Rumors about Buchanan's sexuality stem from his close relationship with William Rufus King, a fellow politician and diplomat. The two men lived together for over a decade and were referred to by contemporaries in terms that today might suggest a romantic relationship. While there is no definitive proof of Buchanan's sexual orientation, these speculations have led some historians and biographers to consider the possibility that he may have been gay. Nonetheless, Buchanan never married, and there is no concrete evidence to confirm or refute these rumors.๐๐ผโ๏ธ TELL US IN THE COMMENTS your favorite moment BABES OR MAYBE WE MISSED SOME COOL THINGS!! ๐

This week on Christories, we're talking about the THE LAST KING OF FRANCE!!! ๐ Louis XVI reigned as King of France from 1774 to 1792. His rule was marked by financial crises, attempts at reform, and increasing public discontent. Despite efforts to modernize the administration and economy, he faced opposition from the nobility and was unable to resolve France's fiscal problems. His indecisiveness and resistance to radical change fueled revolutionary sentiments. The French Revolution erupted in 1789, leading to the monarchy's downfall. Louis XVI was eventually arrested, tried for treason, and executed by guillotine in 1793.

This week on Christories, we're talking about the JFK ASSASSINATION!!! ๐
The assassination of President John F. Kennedy happened on November 22, 1963, in Dallas, Texas. He was in Texas campaigning for a second term and went on a little car ride with the governor and his wifey Jackie- O. He was riding in an open-top convertible through Dealey Plaza, Kennedy was shot by a sniper. He was pronounced dead shortly afterward. Lee Harvey Oswald was arrested for the murder but was killed by nightclub owner Jack Ruby before he could stand trial. The event led to numerous conspiracy theories and remains a subject of extensive investigation and debate.
Several conspiracy theories surround JFK's assassination. Some suggest multiple gunmen were involved, while others believe the CIA orchestrated the murder. Another theory claims the Mafia killed Kennedy in retaliation for his administration's crackdown on organized crime. There are also ideas that Soviet or Cuban agents were behind the assassination, and some propose that insiders within the U.S. government conspired against him. CHRIS GETS INTO IT!! ๐

We got the HILARIOUS @MikeCannonComedy joining us and learning with us๐ So, we got the Pilgrims, who didn't really love King George VIII and his new religion so they dipped to hang with the Dutch and THEN they went to new discovered land! That first winter was BRUTAL! But they figured things out with Squanto. The first Thanksgiving in North America took place in 1621, when English Pilgrims and Wampanoag Native Americans came together to celebrate a successful harvest. The Pilgrims, who had settled in Plymouth, Massachusetts, and the Wampanoag shared a feast that included wild game, seafood, and crops like corn and squash. It was a symbol of cooperation and goodwill between the two groups, though the historical details are somewhat limited. Thanksgiving has since become a significant holiday in the United States, celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November to give thanks for the year's blessings. ๐๐ผโ๏ธ TELL US IN THE COMMENTS your favorite moment BABES OR MAYBE WE MISSED SOME COOL THINGS!! ๐

This week on Christories, we're talking about JULIUS CAESAR! We got the HILARIOUS Mike Cannon joining us and learning with us๐ So, CAESAR, your favorite SALAD, was a Roman general, statesman, and dictator who played a significant role in the transformation of the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire. He was born in 100 BCE and rose to prominence through his military exploits and political maneuvering. In 49 BCE, he famously crossed the Rubicon River with his army, leading to a civil war and eventually his appointment as dictator. His rule marked a turning point in Roman history, as he implemented various reforms and policies. However, his growing power and popularity led to his assassination on the Ides of March in 44 BCE. His death contributed to a period of instability in Rome but also set the stage for the rise of his nephew and adopted son, Octavian, who later became the first Roman Emperor, known as Augustus. Caesar's life and DEATH continue to be a subject of fascination and study in history and literature. ๐๐ผโ๏ธ TELL US IN THE COMMENTS your favorite moment BABES OR MAYBE WE MISSED SOME COOL THINGS!! ๐

We were fighting Russia to get to the moon BAD. Apollo 13 was the seventh crewed mission in NASA's Apollo space program and was intended to be the third mission to land on the Moon. However, it is best known for its dramatic turn of events. Launched on April 11, 1970, the mission suffered an oxygen tank explosion two days later, forcing the crew to abort their lunar landing and focus on returning safely to Earth. Through ingenuity and teamwork, the astronauts, James Lovell, Jack Swigert, and Fred Haise, managed to overcome life-threatening challenges and safely splashed down in the Pacific Ocean on April 17, 1970. The mission is often remembered for the famous line, "Houston, we have a problem," and it demonstrated NASA's ability to handle emergencies in space.

This week on Christories, we're talking about the WAR OF CURRENTS!! IT'S NIKOLA TESLA vs THOMAS EDISON! These two scientist are going head to head. But who is going to win?! Edison supported direct current (DC) for sending electricity, while Tesla backed alternating current (AC).
Edison believed DC was safer and tried to show that AC was dangerous by shocking animals in public demonstrations. Tesla, working with George Westinghouse, promoted AC because it could send electricity over long distances more efficiently. In the end, AC's ability to transmit power over greater distances won, thanks to Tesla's innovations. This war helped shape how we use electricity today, with AC becoming the standard for powering homes and businesses? What do you think about Thomas Edison playing dirty?! That poor elephant!!

This week on Christories, we're talking about the history of BASEBALL!! ๐๐ผโ๏ธโพ๏ธ Baseball, America's national pastime, has a rich history that began in the mid-19th century. The game's roots can be traced back to "town ball" in the early 1800s, but it wasn't until 1846 that the first recorded baseball game took place. The formation of the National Association of Base Ball Players in 1857 marked the first organized league, and professional baseball emerged with the Cincinnati Red Stockings in 1869. The establishment of the National League in 1876 solidified the sport's professional status. Over the years, iconic moments like Jackie Robinson breaking the color barrier in 1947 and the legendary rivalry between the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees have captivated fans. From the Negro Leagues to the introduction of the designated hitter rule and the impact of analytics, baseball's history is filled with milestones and adaptations that have shaped the game we know today.WHO IS YOUR TEAM AND WHO ARE YOU ROOTING FOR BABES?!๐๐ผโ๏ธโพ๏ธ

This week Chris is telling you the history about THE BATTLE OF BROOKLYN!! We’re talking my favorite wooden tooth Homie, who was a short king that led a victorious battle in my favorite island,
Remember, we’re the 13 Colonies and we got King George the 3rd telling us what’s happening, what’s good. We go to war with against the French, and we win it! But we’re in debt which causes a King Georgie number 3 to raise the taxes. We don’t know why we got to be taxed so we start a war!
The revolutionary war starts and we fight the British for freedom babes! One of Chrissy’s favorite battles was the Battle of Brooklyn!
This was the first major battle of the war after the signing of the Declaration of Independence. The battle took place in what is now the borough of Brooklyn in NYC, and pitted the Continental Army, led by General George Washington, against the British Army, led by General William Howe.
The battle began with a surprise attack by the British on the American positions, which were poorly defended. The British were able to outflank the Americans and force them to retreat to their main fortifications on Brooklyn Heights. Despite heavy losses, the Americans were able to hold their position and repel several British assaults.
The American defense collapsed, and the Continental Army was forced to retreat across the East River .. thank god there was some FOG!!
Shout out George W for being a badass leader! We may have lost the greatest land in the whole world for a brief time to the British and lost the battle, but we didn’t lose men! THE BOYS ENDED UP WINNING THE WAR, so eff you 1700s Britain ๐๐ผโ๏ธ
