20st...I read what you wrote, and there is indeed an interesting debate here, but I can't stop thinking about 20st. How do you pronounce that? Twenty STEH or twenty Ssteh, with a silent T?

Now that that's out of the way, I think it could be comparable to the 2016 election. Whether you consider it good or bad, it was a shocking incident that sparked multiple activist movements and discussions, and kinda pushed people towards learning about topics that they might not have been interested in, and the resulting chaos really changed how people view the electoral system, impeachment, and the mainstream media. Neither of the events really shocked the world, mostly just the U.S, and that's my main criteria when considering the biggest events of the century. It has to be something that was big enough to send out a resounding sense of surprise, across the globe.

Don't get me wrong, it was a big thing, but in light of everything that's happened throughout the century, I really wouldn't consider it one of the biggest events, but a runner-up or an honorable mention.
