Wow, this looks hard

:( I am worried that it is. A lot of them look really easy to me but I read loads, enjoy history/mythology and generally know a lot of useless crap.

Oh well. If it's too hard this time and the highest answer is like 10/40, then next time I'll make it heaps easier :surrender

Tell me about it. I can recognize flags and capitals of 50+ countries and locate most countries on a map. I used to amaze my classmates in high school lol.

The only way I could complete this would be by cheating for all the answers, and I don't know that that's exactly fair.
