In a fit of rage, George Washington went to chop down a cherry tree. However, suddenly seeing the error in this judgement, he broke out into song and dance; his friends, impressed by his cool-headedness and dancing skills, opted to make him King of the United States of Dance. He declined, because he thought the name hardly fit the position.

You should see some of the Doctor Who historicals....

eg

The Romans: The Doctor gives Nero the idea for burning Rome when, inadvertently, he leaves his glasses on a copy of Nero's plans for Rome, and setting them on fire.

The Myth Makers It is the Doctor who gives Agamennon the idea for building the wooden horse. The Doctor had thought it was just a myth perpetuated by Homer...

In his attempt to assassinate the president, Lee Harvey Oswald misses the shot as a result of someone discovering and subsequently tripping over him. Seeing this as a sign from above, he goes on a long journey to find himself while narrowly avoiding authorities. Kennedy, meanwhile, goes on to reform the American system of government and economy, bringing about an age of prosperity and peace which would last 7 decades. He dies from an unidentified illness, and the details are not elaborated upon.

Meanwhile, Oswald escapes through Europe, making his way East. He ends up in the Saudi Arabia, and becomes a nomad for several years. Upon seeing a vision in the desert, he returns to the United States under the assumed name "Al-ham Rashin" and goes about spreading the ideals of world-wide brotherhood and peace. However, just as his dream is realized, Lee harvey Oswald awakens from his dream, taking hold of his rifle.

Through a certain chain of events, Western Rome won against Eastern Rome (the Byzantines) and went on to reform and strengthen the empire proper. Due to this, the Romans were able to beat back the Goths and the Turks, thereby securing their power indefinitely. The empire continued on, growing farther into Europe and taking over much of Russia and west Asia. Any nations that had not been taken over properly, were allied with and absorbed into Rome as another of its smaller components. Finally, the Romans crossed the Atlantic Ocean and took over the Americas, laughing at the pathetic Native Americans who tried to fight them with stone axes and arrows.

Once the Americas were firmly within its grasp, Rome declared itself the one true nation, and the world was united under its rule. Technology thrived, and within several centuries of the conquest, humanity had surpassed even its most unlikely fantasies, and began traveling through space and inhabiting other worlds. In the end (and this is what we would consider, perhaps, the year 2000) they held full control over the known universe, and reigned supreme for all eternity. Which was fine, because everyone was happy anyway.

Buzz Aldrin lost the right to be the first man on the moon after losing a game of rock-paper-scissors in the landing module of his Apollo spacecraft. Curse that rock, always losing to paper!

When the reltionship between the USSR and the People's Republic of China was on the verge of collapse, Mao Zedong called up Krushchev and asked him to come over and discuss their problems over some Chinese food. They mended fences, and went on to eradicate capitalism from the globe. Everyone lived happily ever after.
