    Ok so the rules are simple

    each person may ask a maximum of three general knowledge questions

    The questions may be multiple choice or straight answer questions

    a. Germany
    b. Austria-Hungary
    c. Poland
    d. Italy

    2. In physics which element on the periodic table takes the letters "Ra"?

    Ooh, looks fun! I'll join in! :grin:

    @ Yetione:

    1. B, Ljubljana
    2. No idea, are we allowed to internet these?
    3. I believe it's C, a Gluon, but that's just a guess.

    Now for my questions! (I like ancient Rome, BTW. IDK how much of this could be considered general knowledge, so ALL MULTIPLE CHOICE!)

    1. In the Roman Empire, "Equestrian" was a high social class who were usually rich and had large estates and many slaves and freedmen under them. This name originated from:

    a) The fact that many Equestrians could afford to keep several horses as pets.
    b) The fact that the earliest Equestrians were Bronies. xD
    c) The fact that the earliest Equestrians were wealthy enough to ride horses into battle.
    d) The fact that many Equestrians rode horses everywhere they went to flaunt their riches.

    2. Of the Roman Empire's achievements, which of these is NOT considered one of their greatest?

    a) Their general engineering skills
    b) Their military
    c) Their empire's land area
    d) Their system of government

    3. Which Roman Emperor considered placing his favorite racehorse in the Senate?

    1) Octavian (or Augustus)
    2) Caligula
    3) Nero
    4) Julius

    Seeing as you couldn't get the other two I'll give you the correct answers

    2) The burmese python

    3) it is a paradox there IS no correct answer :Trollestia: Because if you killed Hitler there would not be any WW2 so you wouldn't have to go back in time to kill hitler, meaning that hitler would not have died and he would hav-... well you get the picture

    And yes you are allowed to do research, the whole point of this is to test and build up general knowledge


    I'll get the questions going again.

    1) What does a Gieger counter measure?
    a. Earthquake?
    b. Radioactivity?
    c. Humidity

    2) Stomach acid is comprised of which two elements?
    a. hydrogen and chlorine?
    b. Hydrogen and sulphur?
    c. Chlorine and sulphur?

    3) Which war for nuclear power preceded World War 2?

    Good luck!

    I've had the same thing, once I thought "approximately" meant "exactly". xD

    Oh, oops, should I do easier questions? I suppose those aren't exactly general knowledge...
