Ok I have to go do shopping now but when I return prepare for a wall of text as I already have a list of these and how they are important.
The moon landing. Hoax theories aside, it was the first time we showed we're not confined to Earth.
Well, since a lot of people say creation, that's important. (I'd call it evolution from slime though)
and the atom bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. they showed man's great ability to destroy.

Ok Im back and I did warn you about the wall of text so here goes in no particular order:
The Battle of Waterloo. Important why? It lead to the final down fall and exiling of Napolean from Europe thus ending the French Revolution and allowing for a return to normality in Europe for about 6 Decades. The Event: The battle of Waterloo was fought between The British and BENELUX nations (commanded by Lord Arthur Wellesly)and The Prussians (commanded by Gebhard von Blucher) against The French (commanded by Napolean Bonaparte). It seemed for most of the battle that the British would lose as they were under repeated attacks from the French. It wasn't until the Prussians showed up and smashed the French right flank that the British won. The British commander is famous for saying it was a close run thing. Affects: It gave the Prussians the determination they needed to prove themselves to be the best nation in Germany and thus unite Germany. This is important because after beating the french once they felt they could do it again during the Franco-Prussian war which led to the French Hating the Germans and thus coming up with the creuler aspects of the treaty of Versailles.
Im actually gonna leave it at that even though I have others i.e. The Spanish constitution of 1812, The American Civil War, WW1, WW2, The Reformation and Counter-Reformation etc but to list all these in detail would take too long.

I'm not asking...Anyway, if we're going for ever, I'd say the creation of the universe. If we're going for in recent history, I'd say the fall of the Berlin Wall and the end of the Apartheid.
