#OnThisDay in 1991 the #SovietUnion was legally dissolved.

We ask four #ColdWar historians whether the #USSR's demise was as inevitable as it now seems.

Viewed from Prague, the collapse of #communism in #Czechoslovakia was a ‘joyful’ one. But, as some Czechs would discover, not all revolutions are equal.

The Statute of the Jewry (1275) effectively prohibited Jewish moneylending. Any transactions which had already been contracted, along with an interest which had accrued, would be valid until the Feast of St. Edward the Confessor (13 October).

@TeachLeadAAli Absolutely not...so therefore should be interweaved throughout history curricula full time. Because history belongs to all.

OTD in 1942 Leon Greenman, his wife Else, & toddler Barney, were arrested at their home in Rotterdam in Holland.
It marked a turning point for the family, that would eventually led them to Auschwitz-Birkenau, where only Leon would survive.

@OwNiKl @MichaelRosenYes @MaskedManOfMys1 @CelticKali @davmhill I'd vote his auntie Athelflaed. She did all the ground work

@clare_d1683 No, not a single one. It's on my to do list to see if I can find the house in West Brom. Absolutely no reason why there shouldn't be one if it still exists.
And there's certainly more noise in Leicester for a permanent memorial. Which is positive.

[Lianne @bovlia]

@clare_d1683 Thank you John

@MrBartlettHist @MrKennedyHist @histassoc @CastleMeadAcad @NMullenHistory @TomHague88 I'll leave you both to it... isn't a plaque though! Maybe you could make one

[Lianne @bovlia]

@MrKennedyHist @CastleMeadAcad @MrBartlettHist She would have hated this, as a quaker. It's a tricky one

[Lianne @bovlia]

Note. My hair won't necessarily be this colour either!

[Lianne @bovlia]

I'll be talking about the role of women in the abolition movement and why they shouldn't be overlooked

[Teachers Talk History @TTRHistory]

We then have @bovlia talking about ‘Stories in Abolition’ and the way she has taught this topic.

A really comprehensive economic, political, and social deep narrative into Russia during 1950s and 1960s. A must if you teach the Cold War; a refreshing Russian narrative.

Who was the longest reining monarch in world history?
The title belongs to Sobhuza II of Swaziland, who came to the throne at four months old in 1899 and ruled for 82 years and 254 days.

From monks to #Vikings to tourists, the #Manx language has (almost) survived against the odds.
