Here are some questions:

1. Who was the British Prime Minister during the French Revolution and the Napoleanic Wars?

2. "The one duty we owe to history is to rewrite it......" . Who said this ?

3. Which writer was born when Halleys comet appeared in 1835 and died 76 years later when it reappeared? (easy 1 i think)

4. How do we better know "The Leather Apron" ?

5. Connect Ken Rosewall and Venkatapathy Raju .

happy answering
