TOW (& Answer)...

Book Jacket for: Today in history : a day-by-day review of world events.The question was what are some things that happened in the world on July 20?  Well…. In 1402 the Mongol warrior Tamerlane led a massive force of Tartars in the Battle of Angora (he won).  In 1871 FIFA was established.  In 1917 Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes agree to the Pact of Corfu, forming a union called Yugoslavia.  And the one I always think of for this date, Neil Armstrong walked on the moon in 1969.

The question (& answer) were taken from p. 406-407 of Today in History published in 2003 by DK books.
