Mystery of Magnetism
When he was five, he was interested on his father's pocket compass, he was really curious about the invisible forces that make the needle point north always. Later he would develop this idea. -
German citizenship
When he was seventeen he renounces his german citizenship to avoid military service on the army. This gave him more time for his studies and thats why this desicion was one of the more important things he did. -

Albert finished hagh school at the age of seventeen and started in the Swiss Polythenic University in Zurich. -

Einstein graduates from ETH (Fetheral polytechnic) were he met his future wife Mileva. He gained a degree in physics. -
Mileva Maric

Hans Albert Einstein in 1904 in Berne, Switzerland. His second son was Eduard who was born in 1910 in Munich. -
Annus Mirabilis

Relativity
Einstein propososed for the first time his theory of special relativity. This includes the universe using a fourth dimension that counts with time and distance. The equation for this was E=mc2. His discovery had diverse applications but the worst one was the use for the creation of the atomic bomb. -
Divorce
Einstein and Mileva got divorced after he got ill. He fell in love with his cousin and Mileva found out so they decided to divorce as soon as possible. -
Elsa
He married his cousin Elsa and his Theory of Relativity was proven by a solar eclipse. This event proved his theory and let his researches grow. -
Nobel prize
He won the Nobel Prize for physics during his explication of how did the photoelectric effect. He was called for 1921 nobel prize but he received this prize one year later. -
Nobel Lecture
He gave his lecture in Gotherburg Sweden. -
Unified field Theory
He starts developing his idea of an unified field theory but after some months he becomes ill and enlargment of the heart is diagnosted. -
