          I rhyme with a word that could stand for a country -




          revolution rhymes (partially) with nation which is synonymous with country




          A known event to a history junkie,




          there were several prominent revolutions in the world history




          A weird relation to modern computers




          computer revolution: https://www.encyclopedia.com/history/encyclopedias-almanacs-transcripts-and-maps/computer-revolution




          I share beginning with angry refuters.




          shares beginning with revolters (or perhaps revolutionaries)

          Antikythera?




          I rhyme with a word that could stand for a country -




          Inglaterra, which is England in Spanish. Got this one from a rhyming dictionary, I don't know how Antikythera is actually pronounced.




          A known event to a history junkie,




          Antikythera mechanism is an Ancient Greek artifact




          A weird relation to modern computers




          It's considered an extremely early version of an analogue computer




          I share beginning with angry refuters.




          "Anti" as a prefix seems to fit this

          Antikythera?




          I rhyme with a word that could stand for a country -




          Inglaterra, which is England in Spanish. Got this one from a rhyming dictionary, I don't know how Antikythera is actually pronounced.




          A known event to a history junkie,




          Antikythera mechanism is an Ancient Greek artifact




          A weird relation to modern computers




          It's considered an extremely early version of an analogue computer




          I share beginning with angry refuters.




          "Anti" as a prefix seems to fit this

          Para el género de plantas, véase Musa (planta). Apolo y la Nueve Musas En la mitología griega, las musas (en griego antiguo μοῦσαι « mousai» ) son, según los escritores más antiguos, las divinidades inspiradoras de las Artes: cada una de ellas está relacionada con ramas artísticas y del conocimiento. Son hijas de Zeus y de Mnemósine, compañeras del séquito de Apolo, dios olímpico de la música y patrón de las bellas artes, quien tuvo romances con cada una de ellas, dejando descendientes. Bajaban a la tierra a susurrar ideas e inspirar a aquellos mortales que las invocaran. En la época más arcaica eran las ninfas inspiradoras de las fuentes, en las cuales eran adoradas. Finalmente, alrededor de los siglos VIII-VII a. C. [ 1 ] ​ prevaleció en todo el territorio de la Hélade la adoración de las nueve Musas, que son Calíope, Clío, Erato, Euterpe, Melpómene, Polimnia, Talía, Terpsícore y Urania. El culto a las musas era originalmente de Tracia y Beocia, y fueron de vital impo...
