History Knowledge Quiz

[@janwilliams579]

This quiz isn't so much about intelligence as it is historical awareness.

[@jow.6605]

Having a high IQ has nothing to do with general knowledge.

[@user-lm3jo9kn9i]

IQ = 100 would be enough for these quizzes.

[@anthonybeaulieu9820]

There might be a small positive correlation.

[@patricktilley5203]

I agree. These “quizzes “ on KZbin are nothing more than money makers for the tubers.

[@letslia213]

Totally

[@roseromano]

Jo W. I agree. Knowledge and intelligence are two different things. But I wouldn't say that a high IQ has nothing to do with general knowledge because intelligent people like to learn things, they like to read, and they remember more of what they learn. People with low a low IQ usually stop reading when they get out of school and forget much more of what they learned in school.

[@louisericketts6738]

Strictly speaking the Sistine Chapel is in Vatican City not Rome.

[@renukarodrigo4529]

Vatican City would have been the correct answer

[@lynndewitt2152]

19/20 Missed the EU sending aid to Ethiopia...just plain, flat did not remember. Otherwise, fairly easy. Stay safe 😷...Love each other! Peace ✌️

[@jasontempleton2445]

15/20. And as for me having an IQ of 150, I really don't worry about it. If you know the the history of the IQ test itself, its right up there with eugenics, in fact the same guy thought it up.

[@kathleenearle2219]

20 of 20. What's with the atrocious music? Is it to enhance brain cells, or kill off the creative thinking process ???

[@keklordgrey4522]

turn the music off silly....

[@pamelacharbonneau3115]

This was a very good quiz. 19/20

[@Zarcon2008]

20 out of 20... so I have an IQ of 150? I don't think so, I know I have an IQ of 119, so there's no way it's gone up 31 points. Pure entertainment is all it is...but fun none-the-less.

[@genemathews86]

Maybe one of the questions should be: What is the meaning of "hard". What a joke!

[@jonkrueger359]

I missed 3

[@oldgoat50]

That is what she said.;-)

[@failuremagnet]

Well, if you've only been to third grade I guess it might have been hard...

[@normieross2507]

Change music please it’s painfully disturbing.

[@blueflower2565]

Well for a very hard history quiz pretty simple 20-20

[@patricktilley5203]

This is a memory test from reading the daily news and history. My IQ actually dropped a few points. 🤣

[@arodrigues2843]

Seriously , do you need help in your kitchen.???

[@emanjam45]

Didn’t think I’d do it but got 20/20, oh oh, that’s not a good set of numbers for this year.. sorry to say.

[@StevenBrooks346]

I must admit, this was a lot harder than I gave it credit for. Only managed 11 from 20.

[@johnbueybuey6229]

17/20, not bad for a 72 year old methinks...

[@gailmrutland6508]

*19/20. Little Queenie got me (Egypt)*

[@richstex4736]

2 tests, 2 perfect scores; just saying...

[@CatherineBurk]

Perfect score again, what is your definition of hard or difficult?

[@derlinclaire1778]

19/20 correct.

[@paden1865able]

NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition! That said, 20 out of 20.

[@elowishusmirkatroid4898]

Ha ha! Love the Python ref.

[@donawalker216]

Had to share 20 out of 20. Yeah me.

gentle and unchallenging but a guess here and there gott a twenty

[@huberthines8639]

Once again, ‘Who is buried in Grant’s tomb.” 20/20.

[@jeanettedalton7391]

15/20:I'm happy with that result. Great quiz, thank you.:)

[@evajaramillo5657]

20/20, soy de Ecuador y amo sus trivias, siempre obtengo mas de 8 y muchos 10, levantan mi autoestima y practico mi inglés, gracias por hacer mi tiempo productivo y entretenido, besos desde Quito!

[@patricklamshear1806]

19/20 Good show 😉👍👍👍

[@stephenfermoyle1498]

you make the first one easy

[@kristasmith6358]

These can be fun to take, but are so far from being hard. Pretty sure my 8 y.o. grandson could have got close to 15 correct answers.

[@paulchaudoir190]

13/20- I love the historical and sport questions.

[@marionjanusz4077]

I got 16 of 20!,

[@johncooke4245]

10/10 General knowledge most people should know.

[@johncooke4245]

@Mary G You are right , so used to getting 10/10 then as you saw I should have put 20/20 I'll put it down to habit. Thanks for pointing it out.

[@beardieone]

That’s better 10/10

[@darinfortin2754]

Where are test results?

[@pdm2201]

If nothing else some of the choices for answers were funny.

[@pamelacharbonneau3115]

I got 17/20

[@nancylitton390]

I missed 5...I never claimed to be smart! Lol

[@davidisaacson5993]

20/20. Must admit ive heard it more than once. Your a gosh darn geinus. I always figured, Memory is the foundation of IQ. Because no matter how ingenious you are, Without memory your dead in the water.

well, good looking, in my haste to answer, i misread Nazi-BOOTED!, instead of LOOTED, and i'm an artist for chrissakes! my brain should have clicked but i became greedy! and, you almost got me on "partying-on"! aww...but, jeepers, now you're beginning to get challenging, and fun, so keep "partying-on!!! ;)

[@marti-greciaodalyz8786]

and by the way, now i console myself for my failure, by thinking that an apartment full of boots, long as they'd belonged to the Nazis, could have been note-worthy to historians? well... okay, the truth remains, i fell into the arms of desperation for greed's sake? :(

[@marcquesnel1324]

Too easy 20 out of 20. Also the answer to no 14 should be Vatican City not Rome

[@lloydw1726]

Vatican City was established by the Lateran Treaty of 1929 . Well after The Ceiling was finished

[@rickgano75]

20/20 I r smart

[@davidcarroll9698]

19 out of 20

[@catherinematrisotto6619]

I did the interactive quiz and got 10/10. This is just general knowledge.

18 out of 20 (most every contestant on Jeopardy would just love simple questions and Millionaire as well).

[@JeffSherlock]

A stupid title. You do not have to be intelligent to answer correctly, you simply must know the correct answers.

[@deisteryeti61]

19 of 20.

[@banshee7743]

Ugh.. ridiculous...you'd have to be pretty uniformed not to score a 20/20

[@michaelmancini5773]

So I'm 20 for 20, that means I'm a genius with 150 IQ , Right ? General knowledge tests don't mean shit, they mean that people are well read and educated , and usually pretty smart. THATS ALL!!

[@DreAmeoba1]

17 out of 20...sports, & popular music, aren’t my strong suits........

Really???? And here I was thinking that Mandela was kicked out for drinking and poor grades. Lmao

20 of 20 I guess you think I'm a genius Santa.Not! Just knowledgeable.Whew, that was a long word. K

[@mikefarnham4640]

20/20 I suppose it makes a change from a10/10 if that was hard . Then it is getting very frustrating the old guy is not listening his hearing aid battery must be flat. Harder questions please! !!!!!!!!!!

[@sagbrady8414]

I know what my iq is based on test at mensa...graduated with history major...this is a pure knowledge test..

[@dyamano]

20/20. Tough but good quiz. Does anybody else pick the rite answer then second guess it with a back up answer & count that as correct, cause I figure wth I had it rite in the first place?🤣👏✌️💯

[@jonathanchartrand3351]

What the hell does memorizing facts have to to with intelligence? Ridiculous. Just bring us back to the old school days where you just had to memorize everything, and turn the cognitive part of your brain off.

[@patriciasullivan8337]

Got 19/20. I thought this was going to be a history quiz. It was sort of current events. Sorry, but it should have been more difficult.

[@larryd4352]

20 out of 20. Again...if you actually paid attention to what's going on in the world, and passed your high school history class....it was easy.

[@r.t.dominguez1717]

Got 19. Missed the last q.

[@lindickison3055]

True...this had nothing to do with IQ. A couple were teenage oriented, but others were general history knowledge and using that knowledge for educated guesses.

[@janieclaypool9842]

I keep taking these quizzes, hoping for a challenge - but am always disappointed.

[@ernest6352]

19 out of 20, good quiz wide variety of subjects. Pretty easy though I just missed number 20. Guys if you’re going to ask for an Assassin’s name, make sure the other three answers are also assassins that one was just too easy.

[@phlotographer]

originally went with London but changed in error and A Grande is too current for me as I have not followed music since about 1968 so guess my 130 IQ did not do the trick.

[@ursulanau9509]

#14 is incorrect. The answer should be Vatican city as it is independent of Rome and Italy.

[@phyllisdicks9830]

20/20. And question 6 is actually historically inaccurate. Nero was not in Rome at the time of the fire, nor is there any evidence that he ordered it. He was at his villa in Antium at the time, and on his return, immediately began implementing relief measures. The myth was propagated by his political enemies in order to sow distrust among the people. The fiddle reference is also inaccurate, as the violin, or any other instrument in the viol family, had not been developed at that time. He would have possibly played a cithara, or lyre.

[@mikebavoso26]

I agree these questions have nothing to do with your IQ. I've taken an IQ test while I was inlisting into the US Armed Forces and none of these questions were on the test. They asked you things about patterns, the strength of materials either in a vertical or horizontal position, the reputation of moving objects and gears ratios, math and English composition. But then again it says it's a history test of knowledge.

[@jodyguilbeaux8225]

I missed 3 questions, this does not mean that I am smart.Just that I have basic information, mostly because I read a lot about different subjects.

[@gracerobicheaux6368]

I can't believe I am going to admit this I got 19 right but oh my I missed the first one because I didn't read the whole question Dumb huh

[@craigcole9528]

These questions were a little better than usual but not very challenging. 19/20 nothing hard about this, most of this quiz is general knowledge to me

[@mildredjenkins7684]

17/20!!

[@jwarrickdrum]

20 for 20. Again too easy.

[@apriltimson3593]

20/20. However, Nero couldn't have "fiddled' as the violin had not yet been invented

[@tomjohn8733]

19/20, missed number 20,, don’t really follow pop singers, not my thing, sorry, lol

[@melstiller8561]

20/20 --- By the way, general knowledge has nothing to do with IQ.

[@jimschauer37]

I believe the Sistene Chapel is located in Vatican City (an independent city/state) surrounded by Rome.

[@002DrEvil]

Probably the easiest quiz I ever saw. The quotation was the only one I got wrong and that was because I'd never heard of it.

[@bobareeniobobareenio2935]

Hey Jo W. I came here to post the same comment . History knowledge has completely nothing to do with I.Q. Sheesh! Anything to make us click on their video, eh? Hhah

[@connietippetts4585]

answered all correctly. historical knowledge and process of elimination worked

[@perrydee2127]

19 out of 20 - missed #3..... not really too hard for anyone who likes history!

I got 17/20 answers correct. I missed Questions #2, #7, and #14.

18/20 yes music a bit offputting. Old brain can't concentrate :)

Well I'm smart but not that smart I only got 19 out of the 20. I miss the very first one everything else I breezed through

Without taking this test I already know I will get 9/10.....

20/20, although there were a couple questions I actually had to think about for more than a second. More like 3 or 4 seconds!

These are so easy , I don't waste my time anymore , but I still feel like I have scabies from just looking at that nasty kitchen !
