8/10 ! I've never been to Vienna, more often to Tyrol but I love the Habsburg Austria-Hungary period.

By the way, question 9 is a bit puzzling because among the answers there's another genre that the Strauss family (especially Eduard Strauss) did pretty well but for sure, not equally as famous as the right answer.

Congrats! And you are right, it can be confusing. I'll consider changing that.

I'm quite interested in the reign of Franz Joseph too. And in the life of Metternich as well, which gave an opportunity to go through the European first half of the 19th century in an original way, full of surprises.

At this point, excluding France, Vienna may be one of or even my favourite city (among those I have visited, of course). I highly recommend visiting it.

Metternich is a very interesting figure too. Worth studying. He shaped Europe for the whole century. A very far-sighted and visionary person (though we may not agree with everything he did, that's a matter of opinion).

Normally I don't feel at home in big cities but if there's one city I can make an exception, that would be Vienna.

Yeah, I completely agree. During the first year of my higher studies, I had a teacher from ENS who made a parallel between his political and geopolitical decisions and his love stories. It was a bit disconserting but in the end pretty original and actually interesting. I'm pretty disappointed that we don't talk more about him during History classes in middle and high school. He is at best the man of the Congress of Vienna while he did a lot more during the early 19th century.

Isn't only one of the Strausses famous for waltzes (Johann Strauss II)? Richard Strauss, for example, is probably famous for opera than for any waltz.

Tweaked the question although Johann Strauss I was also known for waltzes.

Just realized the other musical Strauss family (Franz and Richard) are not Austrian, but German. Thus the question probably did not need to be changed. My apologies.
