Fab quiz; can't believe I actually tried "Cape Verde Kroeger."

Level 36

Mar 10, 2023

I did try "Kazahkstan Moore" myself

Level 87

I did pretty well considering that I've only heard of four of these people! I question that most of these people are famous. To be famous requires that people know who you are.

well, my criteria was that they've got a Wikipedia page (and also had to cut off some people)

if I went for actually famous people only this quiz wouldn't exist
