Quite a lot. That year was somehow a signficant one... The golden age of the youth's revolution ended then, which is the most important, I suppose.
Also, there were many important political and scientifical events, such as the Moon landing, perhaps the greatest achievment of humanity so far.

RFK & MLK were assassinated in 1968, not 1969. Nixon took office in 1969.

Nothing much the Hippie movement was in full swing with it's slogan of make love not war. Drugs were all over the place, even in the schools. Religious Cults were just forming mostly with East Indian philosophy tired to them. The Vietnam War was raging and man landed on the moon and walked on it.

I was born. Maybe something more, but that's the most important thing for me. And, oh, Morihei Ueshiba, the founder of Aikido, died.
