Are you suggesting that a country with more guns than people ISN’T a reasonable guess?

i don't what to say about myself getting this one wrong

A Pyrrhic victory?

I guess that's what people got for winning instead of trophies and medals. I would have been REALLY SAD if I gotten olive branches for winning

You might technically only win an olive branch but (much like today) successful athletes would usually get paid handsomely by the city they represented. Cities wanted to prove they were the best and they were happy to invest heavily into athletes who could help them achieve that at the Olympics. The fame of winning the Olympics also opened a lot of other profitable doors for successful athletes as well.

Undiscovered by Europeans

Alright everybody, let's do a vibe check so we can get some definite feelings about whether Antarctica was discovered by indigenous Antarcticans prior to 1700

It's not unreasonable to assume that Antarctica was entirely undiscovered before the 1800s. The closest continental point to Antarctica would be Tierra del Fuego, which happens to be close to the Antarctic peninsula, but even then we're talking about 620 miles across the most perilous waters known to man. That plus there's absolutely nothing that would incentivize indigenous people to travel there. When you're talking about Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, or Madagascar, it's even farther, 2,000 miles or more.

It's certainly possible, but so far there's no evidence that suggests it's true. No archaeological finds, no indigenous stories of a voyage to such a place, and at best it would have been an extremely dangerous journey.

8/10 :(
