1885 - ◆(death) Jumbo, African elephant. (timeline)
Jumbo (1861 - September 15, 1885) is a famous elephant in European zoos. Jumbo dies at a railway classification yard in Canada at St. Thomas, Ontario, where he is hit and fatally wounded by a locomotive.
His name, possibly from Jambo, Swahili for hello, becomes an epithet for anything of large size, such as Boeing's 747 Jumbo jet.

November 2, 1914 - ★SMS Kaiserin Elisabeth is scuttled at Tsingtao.
SMS Kaiserin Elisabeth is scuttled when the German naval base of Tsingtao surrenders to the Japanese in World War I.
SMS Kaiserin Elisabeth was a Kaiser Franz Josef class protected cruiser of the Austro-Hungarian Navy. Named in honor of the Empress Elisabeth, consort of Emperor Franz Josef, the cruiser was designed for overseas service and in fact was stationed in China at the outbreak of World War I in 1914.
In fact, Elisabeth of Bavaria herself had been assassinated on Septenber 10, 1898. The day was the day when Matsudaira Motoyasu (the future third unifier of Japan, Tokugawa Ieyasu) changed his name from Motoyasu to Ieyasu.
It is obvious that the Japanese navy attacked the SMS Kaiserin Elisabeth in commemoration of the Battle of Sekigahara.

December 28, 1885 (September 15, 4986 in the Old Hindu Solar calendar)
◆Indian National Congress, a political party of India, is founded in Bombay, British India.
(timeline)
The congress is not the parliament. It is a political party.
The day is the 705th anniversary of the Siege of Nara (December 28, 1180 in the Japanese calendar).
The day is September 15 in the Old Hindu Solar calendar and is the 285th anniversary of the Battle of Sekigahara (September 15, 1600 in the Japanese calendar).
The day is November 23 in the Japanese calendar and is the 1139th anniversary of the completion of the casting mold of Nara Daibutsu (November 23, 746).
※
All in all, the day of December 28, 1885 represents an artful combination of historical events.
The day depicts the start of war in India by the Battle of Sekigahara on the one hand and depicts the politely killing of the Buddhism by the casting mold of Nara Daibutsu and the Siege of Nara on the other.
It is absolutely Japan's conspiracy.
