How old is the crossword puzzle?

I realized while doing some research last week that the crossword puzzle turns 100 in 1913. I’m rather surprised that crosswords are that young. Since I love crossword puzzles so much, I have created a very simple one for everyone this week with all of the clues showcasing world events or items created between 1906 and 1913.
