Nubar became the head of the Armenian National Delegation in 1912, representing Armenian interests to the European powers. He advocated for reforms in the Ottoman Empire and later for Armenian independence after World War I.

Kasparov defeated Anatoly Karpov in the World Chess Championship match in Moscow, becoming the youngest world champion at age 22. The match was stopped after 48 games due to exhaustion, with Kasparov leading 13-11.

Kasparov lost a six-game chess match to IBM's supercomputer Deep Blue, the first time a world champion lost to a computer under tournament conditions. The match ended 3.5-2.5. This event marked a milestone in artificial intelligence development.

Kasparov founded the United Civil Front, a political organization opposing Vladimir Putin's government. The group advocated for democratic reforms and was part of the broader opposition coalition The Other Russia.

Kasparov was arrested at a Dissenters' March in Moscow and sentenced to five days in jail. The protest was against Putin's rule. His arrest drew international attention to the suppression of political opposition in Russia.
