1810s Decade Quiz

Oh boy! If only those 1810's English knew what kind of dances have arrived by this date... they wouldn't call that Viennese dance "indecent"

Thank you, Jane Austen, and Regency romances for giving me many of these answers.

Can you accept Walzer for Waltz?

Also a great opportunity to plug Rasputinas great song 1816, the year without a summer

Hm, I was think of another way of creative.. (throwing darts at a map or something) not cunning and conniving.

btw I had heard of gerrymander and that it had something to do with politics (eventhough I am not from the us/uk and absolutely no interest in politics (as in names and terms etc. ofcourse I have my own opinions on things).

But now I looked up how the name originated, I had no idea a salamander was involved! (I think I half conscious thought it might have something to do with germany, since the word is basicly in it, and somehow always had the weird free association of a jerrycan haha. Well not that weird actually now that I have written it, jerry-gerry pronounced the same right? and that one ís connected with the word germany)

It was the only one I got wrong. I didn't read the question fully. If I had and seen the guys surname I would have got it :( Lesson

The weirdest part is that "gerrymander" is pronounced with a soft G, like "jerrymander," but the man's name, "Gerry," is pronounced with a hard G. A fitting example of how messed up the whole process is.

I thought that was Willard Scott

At first I thought "Kamehameha the Great" was Goku. xD

Could you maybe accept South Africa for Zulu Kingdom? I know it's quite a stretch, but I think like me some people know who Shaka is and where he ruled, but not the exact name of the country.
