I think Caratacus is an equally good answer to question 35.

[jaynorris]

Excellent questions. A great mix. Thank you.

Ireland didn't leave the United Kingdom. The Republic of Ireland did. Northern Ireland is still part of the UK.
Loved the quiz.

Strictly speaking, Richard I's nickname was "Coeur de Lion", because the nobles spoke Norman French at that time. ("Coeur de Lion" means "Lionheart").

Polish mathematicians had already broken an early version of the Enigma code before the war. Turing helped break later versions of the code, but it wasn't a solo effort.

I got 37 correct, but then I studied history and geography in college. And I've been all over the U.K. even though I'm an American--even went back to the two villages in Sussex and Kent, whence my ancestors came and then left in 1635 for America (Boston) after Elizabeth Tudor and Shakespeare had died, but before the Civil Wars and Cromwell. And we also studied a lot of this history in high school. I had forgotten that Constantine the Great was actually in York in 303 A.D. It was fun to freshen up my facts from way back--I'm 73 now. Thanks.

Florence Nightinggale was a nurse, Mary Secole provided "services" to officers.

As an American, I found this a very interesting quiz. Did well on the "big picture" items, but got lost on more detailed happenings such as the dates on your suffragettes.

Most enjoyable - English history was a large part of my schooling.

What was the name of the one peasant who revolted in 1381? (Or maybe you meant Peasants' Revolt?)

[toni]

As I've been in Australia for 58 years and left Bethnal Green when I was 13 I was surprised just how much I still remembered, but horrified at what I'd forgotten. More please...😂😂

"The Peasant's Revolt". Just one peasant?

[tonypetts]

32/40, not bad, got ones I should have known wrong and pulled a few out the bag I didn't realise I did know. Good fun quiz.

[timmelay]

Brilliant quiz, must have missed it earlier. I believe I scored 35/36 ish as lost count. Great set of questions, I just love history 👍

[russellslaney]

Good quiz I got 23/40. Anymore quizzes I enjoy that 🙂

[ianrogerburton]

Great fun, good mix. I had lots of near hits, such as 1924 instead of 1922 for Irish Home Rule and 1916 instead of 1918 for women´s suffrage. The answering space is also a bit tight, with Robert the Bruce hanging on the tip of my tongue whilst I´m glad you allowed William and Mary instead of having to figure out their numbers as well: William III and Mary II.

[heliotropezzz]

31/40 correct. Mainly wobbly on some dates.

[derekadams]

Great fun, got 25 right and very near misses on probably 5 or 6, I thought I was better than that!!!

[Krzyszczynski]

Re Q7: Manchester wasn't actually a city at the time. In fact it wasn't even a borough and returned no MPs to Westminster despite housing a population rapidly heading towards 100, 000 (it was sometimes referred to as "the biggest village in England"). The ruckus of Peterloo arose from demands that something be done about this patently absurd situation.

[cristinabumbac]

It seems I know some history: I missed no 21 and 29. But many questions are related to Europe's history... Do you know we have in Romania a town called Deva? Well, as a Romanian I couldn't miss any of the questions related to the Romans! Lol

[calebvanderwolf]

Did not do as well as i expected.
I'm not surprised as English history is being erased.
The English are the best!!
