Idiot? Yes. I highly recommend it. If you don't get injured, you won't regret it. The bullfighting portion is no bueno, though.

Hit the post on a couple of these. Put General Secretary for the UN question.

For Hibernia I put Great Britain because there's a Scottish football team called Hibernian, didn't consider that since their badge is green it was probably founded by Irish people!

Agreed. White people referred to them as dreads because they found them to be "dreadful". But putting that aside, they are commonly referred to and known as Locs by a large number of black people and should be an accepted answer
