Αθήνα, Οκτώβριος 2012

Η 28η Οκτωβρίου είναι μια από τις ημερομηνίες σταθμός για την ελληνική σύγχρονη ιστορία και κατ' επέκταση για την σύγχρονη παγκόσμια ιστορία. Ολόκληρος ο κόσμος, από την Ευρώπη ως την Ασία και από τον Ατλαντικό, τη Μεσόγειο, τη Βόρεια Αφρική και τον Ειρηνικό ωκεανό βυθίστηκε στη φρίκη του 2ου παγκοσμίου πολέμου.
