Non-musical history for today: 1972 – The Games of the XX Olympiad opened in Munich, West Germany. The event was overshadowed by the "Munich Massacre" in the second week.

Non-musical history for today: 1991 – Estonia, occupied by and incorporated into the Soviet Union in 1940, issued a decision on the re-establishment of independence on the basis of legal continuity of its pre-occupation statehood.
