26 oktober is een datum die in de geschiedenisboeken is neergestreken met aardbevingen, politieke omwentelingen en opmerkelijke culturele mijlpalen. Van een van de bestverkopende games aller tijden tot een van de dodelijkste natuurbranden in Californië: deze dag heeft het allemaal. Ook op het gebied van sport, muziek en literatuur zijn er op 26 oktober bijzondere namen te vinden.
26 oktober is de 299e dag van het jaar (300e in een schrikkeljaar) en valt in het vierde kwartaal. De dag staat in de geschiedenis onder meer bekend om de aardbeving in de Hindu Kush in 2015, de lancering van Windows 8 en de release van Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Het is de sterrendag van het sterrenbeeld Schorpioen, met opaal als geboortesteen en goudsbloem als geboortebloem.
6) Then ## sections, in this order, each heading written naturally in Dutch:
- historical events on this date
- people born on this date
- people who died on this date
- holidays and observances
- where the day sits in the calendar (day number, season, star sign, birthstone, flower)
7) The article must contain EXACTLY 36 numbered facts, running 1 to
36 across the sections combined. Continue the numbering from one
section into the next, never restart it. This count is in the title, so
getting it wrong is the most visible way the page can look wrong. Each fact
is two or three sentences and carries a concrete detail: a place, a number,
a consequence, or what the person is actually known for.
Write each one as its own paragraph opening with the number in bold, like
**7.** and then the sentence. Do NOT use a markdown ordered list ("1. "),because a list restarts at 1 after every heading and the count would break.
8) Include one markdown table (| syntax) summarising the day at a glance, and at
least one blockquote (>) with a striking line about the date.
9) Close with a ## heading of your own wording and a warm final paragraph.
10) Around 1400-1800 words in total.
EVERGREEN RULE (the single most important constraint)
This page is republished unchanged every year, so nothing in it may date.
