- 1971: Idi Amin Dada assumed the presidency of Uganda, beginning eight years of tyrannical, brutal rule.
- 1943: The Germans surrendered at Stalingrad, in Russia, ending one of the most critical battles in World War II; the Soviet victory reversed Germany's advance to the east.
- 1848: The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, concluding the Mexican War, was signed by Nicholas Trist for the United States and by a commission representing the collapsed government of Mexico; Mexico ceded to the United States Upper California and New Mexico (including Arizona) and recognized U.S. claims over Texas, with the Rio Grande as its southern boundary.
