And the Revolutionary War isn't there because....? How about the Hundred Years War...The Boar War...The Irish Revolutionary War...This list needs alot more work.
Quizmaster replies:
It's not supposed to be a comprehensive list of wars.

Ok, that's ok, but I'd get alot more answers right and it would be funner and you'd learn more. That's why I do these quizes - to fill in history and learning. Just a thought.

Peloponnesian is very hard to spell. I had to look it up. You should accept spelling alternatives for that.

I typed in falklands but it didn't accept
Quizmaster replies:
You must have spelled it differently, because it works for me.

Might want to accept Falkland as an alternate. I couldn't understand why Falkland Islands War wouldn't work.
Quizmaster replies:
Added "Falkland Islands" as an acceptable answer.

....triviamomma, if you want to feel superior about your knowledge of wars, feel free. I don't believe that you brought this up just as a suggestion. Did you want every war that was ever fought in human history on here?

I notice from most of the quizzes that I take, when I scroll down to the comments, that triviamomma badgers the quiz creator with suggestions (more like demands) that he/she add more answers to the quiz.

Who cares about Israel enough to put two wars, when there's been far greater ones.

kinda wanna get on the triviamomma hating bandwagon so i'll simply say that it's the boer war not the boar war BOOYAAA!!

Sorry triviamomma, I don't mean to attack, but it wouldn't be "funner", it would be more fun (at least to your way of thinking).

Thumbs up if you got Falklands correct because you saw Ricky Gervais talking about it on his standup routine. The Argentine guns could only fire 9 km, but the British guns could fire 17 km. So we just parked our ships 10 km away, and theirs was falling into the sea, and we were shelling the **** out of them. It's the war equivalent of holding a midget at arm's length. He's flailing while you're kicking him in the bollocks.

"Ok, that's ok, but I'd get alot more answers right and it would be funner and you'd learn more." So, triviamomma, what you're saying in other words is, "if you put more wars in that I know, I would get more correct". Or...perhaps if you learned more about what you don;t already know, you'd get more right as well. Just a thought.

In my language we write Jom Kippoer instead of Yom Kippur, bummer

Yeah, probably not my best quiz, 4/14. Got the pelopponesian war though, first war that I thought of when I saw the quiz.

Just an odd question, and I know this isn't a comprehensive list, but isn't the Hundred Years War at least deserve an honorable mention? XD
