What was the date sudden death quiz
Below is a list of 24 world events from the last 150 years. What you have to do is guess in which year each of them occurred (your guess will count if it comes within 10 years of the event - that is plus or minus 5 years) – so you have to provide a list in one post naming the year against the event (just the number of the event will do). BUT ensure that you start with those you are certain are correct and leave any less certain answers to the end because the winner will be the answer whose list contains the most correct names until an incorrect one appears (or whose list contains all 24 correct answers of course). I hope this is clear but do let me know if you are uncertain.
