Inebriations

For centuries, binge drinking has had heavy consequences and alcohol has tipped the scales of history more than once. In Egypt, 2000 years before B.C., the pyramids were built with the help of beer. In France, the Hundred Years' War was won thanks to barrels of Saumur wine. In Dallas, JFK was assassinated while his bodyguards were nursing a hangover. On the evening of December 31, 1994, a drunken Russian general decided to launch an assault on Grozny, in Chechnya. History as you've never tasted it before!
