What do you know about
THE 19th CENTURY?


You do have answered the questions, before you are looking here?
If not, you can go back now, to the .

First some word about getting points:
You start from the events. Every right name to one of them gives you one point. Every right year gives one point as well. Should you have found the name as well as the year to the same event, this will give you one extrapoint, that is a total of 3 on this question. But please remember, that matched name and year for a wrong event won’t give any point.

Result:
30 - 36 points: Very impressive. Do you know by heart, whenever something happened?
24 - 29 points: Excellent. You got only a few years wrong here and there.
18 - 23 points: Very good. You’re timing the events quite accurately.
12 - 17 points: This is o.k. Average.
07 - 11 points: Enough. But not more.
00 - 06 points: Do you really know, that there were people living before your time?
