Some of the answers repeat and some don't register when you type them, cool quiz though.

Cool quiz, although there are quite a few errors. Some you might consider fixing:

* no years listed for Carinus,

* Geta died in 211 not 212

* Septimius Severus died in 211 not 235

* Romulus Augustus' reign began in 475 not 375

* Lucius Verus, Geta, Trebonianus Gallus, and Diocletian don't register

* Balbinus is the answer to Pupienus and vice-versa

* Marcus Aurelius is listed twice under the Antonine Dynasty

* Valerian is missing his own entry (only listed as ruling with Gallienus)

* Perscennius Niger, Honorius, and Glycerius are missing periods after D in A.D. unlike other entries
