A few days ago I came across Icon Times, a website which at first site looked as a great source for minimalistic illustrations. But once I clicked on one of the illustrations there seemed to be a whole story behind it. So I started looking at more images and found out that they where all related to news events. Here are some of the illustrations, for more, be sure to visit the website. Can you guess all the events, without looking at the descriptions?
