Create a timeline with the events above. The French revolution began in 1789, overthrew the absolute monarchy of the Bourbons and the system of aristocratic privileges. On August 6, 1945, the United States used a massive, atomic weapon against Hiroshima, Japan. This atomic bomb was the equivalent of 20,000 tons of TNT. It killed ten thousands of civilians. For thousands of years, man had looked to the heavens and dreamed of walking on the moon. In 1969, as part of the Apollo 11 mission, Neil Armstrong became the first to accomplish that dream. The world was shocked when the Titanic sank. The "unsinkable" ship Titanic sank on its maiden voyage, losing at least 1,517 lives, making it one of the deadliest maritime disasters in history. Titanic hit iceberg on April 14, and sank on April 15, 1912. At 10:35 a.m. on December 17, 1903, the Wright brothers flew the Flyer for 12 seconds over 120 feet of ground. It was the first flight of an airplane. The Mexican Revolution started in 1910, when liberals and intellectuals began to challenge the regime of dictator Porfirio Díaz, who had been in power since 1877, a term of 34 years called “El Porfiriato”, violating the principles and ideals of the Mexican Constitution of 1857.
