If you could travel back in time and witness any historical event, which one would you choose and why?

I'm always curious about what the 18th century looked like, although that wasn't a specific historical event... but this period marked a significant increase in intellectual and philosophical thinking, emphasizing the importance of reason, scientific inquiry, and individual rights. It's intriguing to imagine the potential chaos that might have ensued during that time! lol

This is such an interesting question because I love history! Actually there are lots of historical events that I'm curious about but maybe I want to be a witness of the moon landing! I want to be the people who stepped on the moon and see how the universe look like out there. Is it cold? Is it dark? I want to know it all.

rather than witnessing historical events, I would like to meet my favorite writers of classic books, such as Emily Brontë, George Orwell, Franz Kafka, and others hehehe ;)

I'm not a big fan of history, but I've always wanted to witness World War II in the Pacific, especially between Japan and U.S. I have read some articles and historical background about it with various perspectives and interested to know more.

French Revolution. Anything about rebellions, liberation, and fight for your needs against the country, corrupt government—I wanted to see it all and I wanted to see with my own eyes how they gave out the strategy and made that happen.
