You all know what a trivia game is, but this one will have trivia questions ONLY about history and geograhpy . First person to reach 5 points wins a game (you get nothing from it except personally prestige). The questions will get harder and harder at first starting easy.

Incorrect west Germany and east Germany really? Let me rephrase what countries were created due to WWI or WWII that are still countries. Whoever answers next just has to name to countries because Czechoslovakia is correct.

Well, Austria and Hungary separated, so those might be considered new countries created by the war.

The Ottoman Empire also lost most of it's power when the Central Powers were defeated, and became the modern nation of Turkey.

I also know Finland, Lithuania, Yugoslavia, Albania, and Latvia were established after the Great War, but I'm not sure which were created due to the war itself.

Too long of an answer?
Too many answers in general?

Oh... and the only German Ship of any kind I can remember from when my class covered WWII was the Battleship Bismark, named I presume after the Chancellor that Kaiser Wilhelm replaced in the 19th century.

What made her stand out in my mind was Churchill's famous order to "Sink the Bismark" sending the Royal Navy to relentlessly pursue her.

I think this would make her famous enough.

@KnockoutSloth

You said you though it was about a treaty, and if that was correct would you have wanted me to not give you a point and goto the next question?

This round will end by 9:30pm Eastern time or around 6:00pm.

For flamming I think I'll subtract three points from you. Idc if you find this a petty punishment, a harsh one, a unjust one or just don't care.
