Digistoria – cele mai importante evenimente petrecute pe 13 octombrie

The origins of "Friday the 13th" trace back to the arrest of the Knights Templar in France on a Friday, the 13th, under King Philip IV's orders. They were accused of satanism, but the real motive was the king's debt to them. Jacques de Molay, their leader, cursed Philip before his execution, leading to the king's death that same year. In 1792, construction began on the White House, designed by an Irish architect and influenced by George Washington. John Adams was the first president to live there in 1800, with the name becoming official in 1901. In 2010, 33 Chilean miners were rescued after being trapped underground for 69 days, a rescue effort that garnered international attention and involved NASA.
