I like this; hence nominated but Haymarket is better known as a riot or even massacre. Perhaps Lewinsky instead.

technically speaking, doric ionian and corinthian were styles or orders. columns were just one of the features which defined each order

Yes, order should be accepted.

There's an Ionian mode, but the second mode is called Dorian rather than Doric, and there is no Corinthian mode.

Profumo and Dreyfus - Trial or Scandal, but affair? Haymarket Riot barely known outside the US (and then as a riot as much as an "affair")

Level ∞
Mar 6, 2023
Yes. They are not known as the Profumo Scandal or the Dreyfus Trial. Affair is the correct answer.

If you find a better affair than the Haymarket Affair, please let me know.

I'm familiar with Haymarket riots, maybe Haymarket massacre. But I never had heard of it referenced as "affair." I see it now in Wikipedia....it's just the first I've heard it that way.

If we're going to have an affair that people don't know about, how about the Petticoat Affair?? It sounds fun at least.
