1989 was the year when my favorite artist, Salvador Dali died and the year when Romania, my homeland, suffered major political changes: president Ceausescu was executed and Romania became a democratic country. These are the most important events for me, but there were others too, like the first liver transplant using a live donor at Chicago Medical Center, an earthquake measuring 6.9 on the Richter scale hit the San Francisco area, Japanese Emperor Hirohito died at the age of 87, Berliners took part in taking down the Berlin Wall that had divided the city for 27 years, a railroad tunnel (called Seikan) opened in Japan between the Honshu Island and Hokkaido, the worst oil spill in US history occurred when the super-tanker Exxon Valdez ran aground in Alaska, the US troops invaded Panama, free elections were held in the Soviet Union for the first time in its history...... Many, many events!!! I am proud of the year I was born! It's so interesting!
