November 16, 1919: What happened on that day?


Here's what happened on November 16, 1919:

  • Einstein's General Relativity Confirmed Scientists Arthur Eddington and Andrew Crommelin officially confirmed Albert Einstein's groundbreaking general theory of relativity through observations made during a total solar eclipse on May 29, 1919. This scientific validation dramatically transformed our understanding of space, time, and gravity.
  • Treaty of Versailles Senate Rejection The United States Senate failed to ratify the Treaty of Versailles, a critical moment in post-World War I diplomacy. This rejection meant the United States would not join the League of Nations and would pursue a more isolationist foreign policy in the interwar period.
  • Romanian Withdrawal from Budapest After significant diplomatic pressure from the Entente powers, Romanian military forces withdrew from Budapest, allowing Admiral Miklós Horthy to enter the city and effectively mark the end of the Romanian occupation of Hungary following World War I.
  • Treaty of Neuilly Signing The Allies signed the Treaty of Neuilly with Bulgaria, formally establishing post-World War I territorial and military conditions for Bulgaria. This treaty was part of the broader peace settlements that reshaped European borders after the conflict.
