    Correct! THis was an event of the Barbary War between the US and North African pirate cities. The line "to the shores of Tripoli" of the US Marines hymn comes from this war.

    Your turn!

    Lol, given the date, I'm assuming the liberation of Milano by the CLNAI?

    Stupid me, should have kept in mind where you're from... It was taken in Venezia, after its liberation on the 28-29th of April.

    Correct! You can see St Mark's basilica in the background.
    I can't rep you though, can somebody please do the honours?

    I'm ashamed to say I've never seen the basilica(or Venice) IRL, though I've had the pleasure to see Verona a couple times.

    Here we go!

    This appears to be an image taken during the Carnation Revolution that occurred in Portugal in 1974.

    If I am correct, do not dare to rep me as I cheated egregiously by right clicking the photo and selecting the "search the web for image" option. I am shameless and to be despised.
