for me it's the christmas truce of 1914. it gives me hope that humans can look past culture,nationality,and even war to bond with one another. that maybe something deeper binds us all as a species.

Fall of Constantinople. Goes to show that none can stand against the might of a righteous army of God.

>Alexander quickly became impatient at the pace of the siege, so he grabbed a ladder and went up it himself.[30] He was followed by only two soldiers. The rest of the soldiers, nervous about the safety of their king, crowded the ladders to get up so that they could protect him. There were too many of them, and the ladders collapsed under the weight. The Mallians realised who Alexander was, and focused their energies on him. Many of Alexander's men held out their arms and called for him to jump down to them.[31] The King, however, would not.[citation needed]
>Alexander leaped into the inner area of the citadel.[32] There, he killed the Mallians' leader.[33] But an arrow penetrated Alexander's lung, and he was severely wounded.[34] The Macedonians believed Alexander dead. After gaining entrance to the city, they planned to kill everyone in revenge.

Slave revolts and massacres. Serves crackers right and it never lasts or they get annihilated later but it's nice to read
That time Caesar was kidnapped by Cilician pirates, walked around their ship like he owned the place, laughed when they told them how much they wanted for his freedom and offered triple, played games with them and acted like one of the lads, then crucified every last one of them when his men finally paid the hostage fee.
