Anything of interest happen in 9-11? (en.wikipedia.org)

I've seen the Wikipedia article on year 9 doesn't mention anything of relevance happening during November. Closest thing seems to be September. Since people around have spent a few years making lots of ruckus about how the date with "9, 11" has some sort of importance as a date, I was wondering if I'm missing something here.

September 11 is also the date in 1973 when a CIA-backed coup in Chile deposed the democratically-elected Salvador Allende and replaced him with Augusto Pinochet. Pinochet turned the government into a military dictatorship where opponents were kidnapped, tortured, and murdered or "disappeared".
