Three moments from February 8 that reveal how authority, systems, and technology reshape power in public life.
1587 – Mary, Queen of Scots is executed at Fotheringhay Castle in England after years of imprisonment. Her death removes a rival claimant to the English throne and marks a decisive assertion of state authority over royal blood.
1924 – Nevada carries out the world’s first execution using lethal gas. Introduced as a more humane method of capital punishment, it instead marks a grim turn toward technological solutions for state-sanctioned death.
