This module displays events occurring on this day in history. For example, if today was January 6th the birth of Joan of Arc (born January 6, 1412) might be displayed.
This Day in History module adds the node type: Historical event, and supports the Node import module for importing historical events. User created historical events are displayed in blocks. Any number of blocks can be created, and the events displayed can be selected by a number of different criteria, including randomly. If no event exists for the current day, no block is displayed.

Known Problems:
