BlakeOh, dude, a famous event that starts with "P"? How about the "Prohibition Era" in the 1920s when alcohol was banned in the U.S.? People were sneaking around, making secret booze, and having underground parties like it was nobody's business. It was like a giant game of hide and seek, but with way more moonshine.
One historical event that starts with the letter "P" is the Peloponnesian War, which took place between Athens and Sparta from 431 to 404 BCE. This conflict had a significant impact on ancient Greece, leading to the eventual decline of both city-states. The war is well-documented by Thucydides in his work "History of the Peloponnesian War."
The Peloponnesian War was fought between Athens and Sparta about 400 years B.C.
Pontiac's War was a war started in 1763 by a group of Native American tribes in the Ohio / Michigan / Illinois area in response to the British seizure and settlement of areas the British had won from the French in the French and Indian War. (The French had traded with the Native Americans to their mutual benefit but had not tried to settle much of the land.) Pontiac was an Ottawa chief who was the most prominent of several Native American leaders.

The Proclamation of 1763 in America. The London government issued this to prohibit settlement to the west of the Appalachian mountains in order to oppress the colonists and to settle the Indian problem without another eruption like Pontiac's uprising. (Another event that starts with a P.)

History fair topic ideas?
Don't do the old History projects, like everyone does, like wars, famous people just don't do the projects like everyone does. Do something that's original! Do something that did change or effect history that people don't really think about. Like John Brown, cell phone invention, how the U.S. got its border's, wall of china, Disney (how it effect the world economically) invention of coke, remember just get creative and have fun, when your in to it you will get a good grade and have fun.
