March 26th is a day rich with history, spanning various fields such as politics, arts, science, and sports. Here are 15 notable events:

1830 The Book of Mormon is published by Joseph Smith in Palmyra, New York. It would become the foundational text for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
1871 The Paris Commune, a radical socialist and revolutionary government, was declared in Paris, signaling the start of a two-month rule.
1917 The First Battle of Gaza: British troops are halted after 17,000 Turks block their advance, marking a significant event in World War I.
1931: Swissair, the national airline of Switzerland, is founded. It played a key role in the development of commercial aviation.
1953 Jonas Salk announces his polio vaccine, a groundbreaking development in medical history that would lead to widespread vaccination against poliomyelitis.
1958 The United States Army launches Explorer 3, its third satellite, as part of its contributions to the International Geophysical Year.

1979: Anwar Sadat, Menachem Begin, and Jimmy Carter sign the Egypt-Israel Peace Treaty in Washington, D.C., a major step towards peace in the Middle East.
1997 The Comet Hale-Bopp has its closest approach to Earth, providing a spectacular show in the night sky and becoming one of the most observed comets in history.
1999 The "Melissa" computer virus, causing massive disruption and highlighting the vulnerabilities of the internet and email systems, was unleashed.
2000: Vladimir Putin is elected President of Russia, marking the start of his long tenure in Russian politics.
2005 A 6.6-magnitude earthquake hits the Hindu Kush region of Afghanistan, causing widespread damage and loss of life.
2015 Co-pilot Andreas Lubitz deliberately crashes Germanwings Flight 9525 in the French Alps, killing all 150 people on board in one of the deadliest aviation disasters of the decade.
Each of these events left a significant mark on history, reflecting changes in politics, society, technology, and the natural world.
