	That was harder than I thought! Typed Egypt, then Cairo until I realized what you were looking for. Good quiz all around!

	Too history-centric.

	Blast, I never spell Boleyn right! (and missed the last e in Plantagenet too)

	"I've lived through twelve recessions, eight panics, and five years of McKinleynomics. I'll survive this."

	why didnt it accept FDR?

	Because that's not his name?

	It's the Julio-Claudian Emperors, and there are 5. You left out Augustus. He is as much a Julian as the other 4

	Did anyone else find this too similar to the first History By the Numbers? That one asked for Warsaw pact languages, the ancient wonders of the world, and the first five Roman emperors. Surely there more numbers in history!

	Should accept the German spelling of the house with all the Georges. And Orange-Nassau should at least be a bonus.

	Uh... the New Brunswick, Quebec and Ontario province? All together?

	Something's gone wrong with the Canadian provinces (3 count as 1 answer and it won't take them separately) - and the answer stats refer to classical elements

	I think that angevin is the French demonym for Anjou, so it should be either House of Anjou or Angevin House. "House of Angevin" sounds to me like "Republic of Italian".

	Oh boy, I got Saxe-Coburg-Gotha but forgot half of the easier house names such as Hanover. An odd American I am.

	@Teary_Ennui: sorry I was just replacing the Romans. I initially thought of Canada (but then I remembered that was in HBN1) so I've gone for an old classic if you'll excuse the pun! Thanx TJL and all for the comments.@newfoodie: There are more numbers in history that is true enough, but the alternatives for some of the numbers I felt would not enhance the game so I shifted the emphasis of the question. If you look at the most missed they are still proving among the most elusive of answers.

	Seymour doesn't count for Jane Seymour? Really?

	ChileNoseJam:	Apr 28th, 2011 at 21:35 GMT	1 point
	Any chance of accepting Bodrum for Halicarnassus? The modern town in the same place, and easier to spell.

	Fans of the show Avatar The Last Airbender got all the Greek Elements.

	How about accepting Norman for Normandy?

	Henry the Eighth really liked Catherine/Kathryn/Katherines. It must have been a popular name at the time.

	I kept wondering why it wouldn't accept the ancient wonders I typed in. Then I read the category. Oops.

	The Rising Sun? Usher? Pancakes? Drat...I guess I'm not invited to the royal wedding.
