Question 2 is incorrect. Edward the Confessor was a Anglo Saxon King whose 1066 death brought on the crisis that led to William's invasion. Edward III was a 14th century monarch.

Not all the Hanoverian monarchs were named George: you overlooked William IV & Victoria ( her son, Edward VII, was the 1st of the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha). Queen Victoria's husband, the Prince Consort, was Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, but Victoria was the daughter of the Hanoverian Duke of Kent.

Some one likes Henry the eight, I lost track of how many questions were about him.

Charles 1st was executed on 30th jan 1648. At that time, the year started on the 25th march. The calender changed in 1752 to the gregorian calendar starting the year on 1 jan. If you have the opportunity to go to st georges chapel, Windsor castle, you'll see 1648 written on his gravestone.

Q38 is wrong. Cardinal Wolsey built Hampton Court Palace, not Henry VIII. Wolsey did gift it to Henry as a bargaining tool under his sentence of death.

#30 is WRONG! it was William III & Mary II. William II was William I's (William the Conqueror), he was known as William "Rufus".

Question 11 is wrong, you forgot william 4th, a hangover ian not called George. Also question about the confessor is misleading, the king known as Edward 3rd very different. Accepted numerical numbering of monarchs runs from the Norman conquest. Gave up after question 11 as you obviously don't know the subject sufficiently to provide an adequate test

William IV must have done a lot of drinking. 😀
