I have to come up with 3 important dates in history, and convert the day, month, year into French numbers.

There are so many dates to choose from.  Any ideas of 3 that I should use?

By the way, please don't convert them to French. I'll do that. I'm just looking for the important dates in history.

Any world history events.  I have to convert it to French, so I'll have to pick and choose from the ones given that have words that I can actually translate to French,  lol

If you want a French date that became part of world history then try 14th July, 1789, the Fall of the Bastille, the event that truly sparked the French Revolution. July 14th is now French National Day.

Some great dates!  I'll look at them closer when I get home from work and see what I can translate.
