November 9 historical events
1180 — Minamoto and Taira forces confront each other at Fujigawa
On November 9, 1180 in the Western calendar, forces aligned with Minamoto no Yoritomo and the Taira clan faced each other near the Fuji River in what is now Shizuoka, Japan. The Taira force withdrew without a major pitched battle, an early setback for the clan in the Genpei War. Later accounts tell a story about waterbirds startling the Taira camp, but the detail is a tradition rather than a firmly established cause of the retreat.
Japanese sources give Jishō 4, tenth month, twentieth day; the Western calendar date used here is November 9, 1180.

Fifteen leagues from Matanzas, Cuba, a large band of pirates captured several vessels and held them for ransom. Upon hearing of the pirate attacks, the Alligator under Lieutenant William Howard Allen rushed to the scene to rescue the vessels and seize the pirates. Upon arriving at the bay where the pirates were said to be, USS Alligator dispatched boats to engage the enemy vessels, as the water was too shallow for the US warship to engage them herself.

General elections were held in Burma on 9 November 1932, having originally been planned for 29 October. The election was held almost solely on the issue of whether Burma should separate from India, as the British government had indicated that it would take the outcome of the elections as an indication of Burmese opinion. Prior to the elections many of the major parties joined either the Anti-Separation League or the Separation League. Despite expectations that the separationists would win, the Anti-Separation League won a majority of seats. However, the anti-separationists were not in favour of maintaining the union with India, but instead called for a better constitution for a separate Burma.
