Greece was really kinda the birth of Western culture (lest just go with this thanks history textbooks).
The Greeks developed the systems of government we know today, like democracy! Though Greek democracy differs from today’s democracy, it’s what started the idea. (Greek democracy was more direct and involved regular citizens in government while countries like the US have a representative type democracy.)
Greece also was a center for the arts and architecture, just look at the things that came out of Athens! They’ve got the Parthenon for heaven sake!
Greece also was a center for philosophy, Plato, Socrates, the whole gang! These philosophies can be seen still applied today.
Math. You know that one guy Phythagaros? Yeah. He developed the stupid a^2+b^2=c^2. I hate geometry, thanks Egypt and Greece.
The Greeks further developed medicine which started from the Egyptians really....
War! Look at Sparta, new technique and weapons! Fuuun!
The Greeks traded like crazy! That was kinda a big thing. Since the Greeks were on the .... Greek islands .... they had few places suitable for farming. They resorted to a few crops that could grow on rocky terrain like olives, etc. They herded goats that could hand the terrain, etc. Fish. Everything else had to come from somewhere else. This trade spread Greek culture.
Literature and Mythology. We learn all sorts of Greek mythology in school or whatever, from Zues to Eurydice. Also literature took a turn here and started to become... epic really. We have the illiad and the odyssey, the illiad being about the Trojan wars, and the odyssey about the trip back home from the war and posidon being rude.
We also have theater! We get dramas and comedies!
So yeah there’s a lot about Greece that’s kinda important culture wise.

Answer: The Captivity of Judah.

Jeremiah was a renowned prophet in Judah at the time and prophesied that due to Jehoiakim's many sinful ways, Judah would fall and be captured. This came to pass when Jehoiakim rebelled against the Babylonians and Nebuchadnezzar came and defeated Judah and killed Jehoiakim.
Throughout history, to prevent the Civil War, the south could have accepted President Lincoln and his opinions on slavery and how the US was going to get its money. To have completely prevented a Civil War, the north could have accepted the south's secession.
