Nice quiz! More like this would be great. Two small things: It should be Melania (with an "a") and it would be good to allow just "Rasputin" as the answer rather than requiring his first name (which the other answers don't).

Nice. It's the American Revolutionary War, not the Civil War.

Melania isn't the first lady anymore and, nitpick, tsar in Tsar Nicholas II should be capitalised.

I think it should be "War & Peace", not "War & Piece".

Franz Kafka is a Germanised Jew. He is not Slav.

Fun quiz! Any chance you could please add "Mendeleyev" as a type-in, it's the spelling we learn in Australia :)

Good quiz! You have spelled peace in War and Peace wrong though. Also, Melania Trump isn't the First Lady of the USA any more.

making a quiz about famous slavic people and then erasing their slavic name is crazy - Maria Sklodowska-Curie, not Marie Curie. sklodowska-curie should at the very least be an accepted answer
