100 Must Know World History Questions - Quiz

[@stephenhosmer9444]

I got 98/100, but I studied European history and geography in college, and have visited over 100 countries, which is a great way to remember places around the globe! Didn't know Les Bleus and a Chinese dynasty, but some of these questions were ones I had heard before, maybe 10 of them.

[@XavierChavez-k2u]

Missed 7 but made a lot of correct guesses, so...

[@mofleh177]

@@XavierChavez-k2u I too made dozens of "educated guesses". The thing is, this series helps with such thing as they don't often include deceiving questions/choices for example if they ask about a historical figure from a Latin American country it's often safe to exclude names that doesn't sound Latin and so on!

[@pageribe2399]

I got 93, but half of those were (slightly) educated guesses. I guess that means that I "learned" those at some time but couldn't tell you when or how; the answers were just "in there somewhere,"

84/100. History was never my best subject, but didn’t do too badly for an old lady. King Tut was a teenager when he died.

Glad you noticed 😃

Kirk would have cheated to avoid the iceberg.

Hi again from Namibia. I got 85%!

[@marygruber8665]

The wonderful thing about history questions is that people pride themselves on knowing every detail of a certain culture and time frame instead of asking history questions that deal with the broad strokes of significant parts of what we should all know. Maybe the history professors should just stay in a classroom with each other. You would have fun!

[@trevorfuller1078]

Thank you 🙏🏼 for this history quiz, I enjoyed doing it! 😊 91/100

Another excellent set of questions, thanks Ben

93/100. The supermarine Spitfire, Tutankhamen was 18 nearly 19 when he died. For a scientific mind I'm pleased with my score.

[@alexmacfarlane4426]

97/100 but I love History. Should have got bonus points for question 82, knowing Captaian Haddock is from Tintin and Kirk is Star trek.

The leader of the Spartans at the Battle of Thermopylae was King Leonidas. Here's a story about his legendary stand: In the summer of 480 BCE, the Persian Empire, under the rule of King Xerxes, was on the march, seeking to conquer Greece. The Greek city-states, normally fractured and at odds with one another, united against the common threat. Among them, the Spartans stood as the epitome of martial prowess and unyielding courage. At the forefront of this resistance was King Leonidas of Sparta. A seasoned warrior and a shrewd leader, Leonidas was chosen to lead a small force to the narrow pass of Thermopylae, the "Hot Gates," a strategic chokepoint where the vastly outnumbered Greek forces could hold off the Persian army.

83/100, though I must say, I guessed about 10 questions and answered many via the process of elimination. “Live long and prosper.” 😂

87/100. I like these better than the science quizzes.😊 thanks.

92 including a few educated guesses i.e. process of elimination rather than actual knowledge... still taking those points though! 😅

Yes, most references say about 18/19. Thanks for playing

Correct me if I’m wrong but on question 10, I believe the Mayan civilization was gone by the time the conquistadors arrived. I believe the question is talking about the Aztec Empire.

99/100 with the options - only missed the last of the Five Good Emperors - and 86/100 without. Don't know the Q9 bonus but I will try 18? Q35 bonus is the Supermarine Spitfire, unless it also had some alphanumeric code assigned to it that I can't think of.

Wow, great result. Yes, he was about 18 when he died, and correct on the Spitfire name. That one would have had a model number, but I don't know it 🤔. Thanks for playing 😁

92 (94 with bonus points). I basically failed at a few questions about Africa, which US president signed the act and the sepsis doctor and the teacher of Plato. I'm actually a tiny bit surprised I got so many modern questions (19th and 20th century questions). I'm from Norway and my special interest is ancient and medieval history, as well as Napoleonic, though I am fond of all history. That said because they came with options the quiz was a lot easier than it could have been. Without the options I would have failed a lot more.

[@LeatherRawhide]

I got 94 !

[@EggPotionFilms]

79/100, good considering im only 15 and in the UK we don't really do world history, so I've relied on general knowledge, stuff I read when I was younger, and guesses

[@francescaemc2]

Great quiz Ben! Tutankhamun died at 14... the name of the plane was: Charlie L. Spitfire ;) Cheers!

I do not think that you can say that the Spaniards conquered the Mayas because: 1- The Spaniards conquered the Aztecs and surrounding peoples while the Mayas that still existed where elsewhere. 2- The major Mayan empires had collapsed by the time the Spaniards arrived although there were still Mayans scattered in the Yucatan peninsula and Guatemala. 3- There were no wars between the Spaniards and Mayas 4- The Spaniards were mostly unaware of the Mayas while they were in New Spain.

@BrianLowe-oq9mj Mayas is the correct name in Mexico
