Greece

* The island of Aegina and the city of Athens go to war. The island has earned the enmity of Athens by earlier submitting to the Persians. The Spartan King, Leotychidas, tries unsuccessfully to arrange a truce in the war.
* The Athenian Archonship becomes elective by lot from all the citizens, an important milestone in the move towards radical Athenian democracy. There are nine archons and a secretary. Three of the archons have special functions: the basileus, or sovereign; the polemarch (originally a military commander); and the archon eponymous (chief magistrate), who gave his name to the year.

Births

* Gorgias, Greek philosopher (approximate date) (d. c. 376 BC)

Nebraska is the world? Actually it's more like the sign Harpo was carrying in "Duck soup". Join the Navy to see the Army! (in this case Air Force).


Look on the bright side, they could have sent you guys to Nauru or something. Besides, if they say Nebraska they probably mean Stockholm.


Stockholm is good. I could like Stockholm. A lot. A whole lot! But I think I'm cracking the code. Ya ask for overseas, ya get Nebraska. Ya ask for Nebraska , ya get Nebraska. Ya ask for a coast , ya get Nebraska. (Something is wrong here. I'm detecting a pattern).


You would be so welcome

Bought my new boat in December over semester break and brought 'er up from San Diego to San Fran. Woohoo. 52 feet of brand-new sloop.

Who knows what we might actually wind up doing? I know one of our early campaigns will be to invade Hawai'i...


And nice to see you again pasternakski.

Persian empire

*Egypt revolts against Persian rule.

Roman Republic

*During his third consulate, the Roman consul Spurius Cassius Viscellinus proposes an agrarian law to assist needy plebeians, a measure violently opposed both by the patricians and by the wealthy plebeians, who have Cassius condemned and executed.

China

*The first part of the Grand Canal of China is built during the reign of King Fuchai of Wu. It links the Yangtze River with the Huai River, and is a measure to ship amble amount of supplies north for intended wars with the northern states of Song and Lu.

Deaths

*Spurius Cassius Vecellinus, Roman consul (executed)

Poor old Cassius; tried to be the first Roman Emperor, but didn't have Julius Caesar's ruthlessness.

Cool.
