Noooo, fell at the last hurdle and I was absolutely flying up to that point 😅 Never heard of the Council of Trent, went for Worms because that one did ring a bell. Only knew the Steve Wynn one because of a previous DTC question about his casino though haha
Yeah that question was a bit tricky, because the 1521 Diet of Worms (where Martin Luther was commanded, but refused, to renounce his objections to the Catholic Church) lives in fairly close ecumenical proximity to the Council of Trent.
It's entirely reasonable that someone with only a passing familiarity with the subject might get them mistaken.
Almost fell at the ecumenical council. I knew of the Diet of Worms because we used to find that hysterically funny in history class, but remembered the Council of Trent and went for that since it had council in the name.
8/10. Managed to dig Trent from somewhere back of my mind, but no idea on #6 and #7. These were too US-centric trivia for me, but as majority of jetpunkers are from USA, understandable.
Really irritated with myself. Got the first 9, and history is my specialty. I knew that Worms was a trick because that's where Martin Luther was excommunicated. But really don't know how I missed Trent :(
Argh. 9/9 and I knew #10 but missed. I think that would have been a top 5 result. Any chance of increasing the space between answers for those of us with accuracy issues (asking for a friend Lol)
It's entirely reasonable that someone with only a passing familiarity with the subject might get them mistaken.
associated? ;)
But acknowledging your point, it probably is not very commonly known outside the US.
Never would have noticed if you hadn't asked.
