What topics does this quiz cover?
Ten of the most powerful empires in history, each with specific time frames — the Roman, Mongol, Ottoman, British, French, Holy Roman, Inca, Chinese, German, and Austro-Hungarian. The exact periods are given for each one, which makes the quiz especially interesting.
How difficult is the quiz?
Above average — and here is why. Knowing that Napoleon ruled France or that Genghis Khan founded the Mongol Empire is not enough. Each question gives you a specific year, and you need to remember who was actually in charge at that time. The answer choices are deliberately drawn from rulers of the same empire, which makes picking the right one even harder.
Who is this quiz for?
Anyone who is fascinated by the history of states and rulers, European and Asian empires. The quiz spans different eras and regions, so there is something here for everyone who loves world history.
How do you get a perfect score?
Watch out for trap questions — a well-known ruler placed in the wrong period. If you know your dates rather than just the broad strokes, a perfect score is absolutely within reach.
