A hollow victory is worthless, a Pyrrhic victory is detrimental.

No idea what the other thing everyone is talking about is.

I liked the quiz, but you'd think that the European crown princess question will change at some point. Not knowing the person in question or the age of their relatives, I'm not sure how long realistically it will be until that happens.

Maybe change the wording on Victor Frankenstein a bit? It’s incredibly similar to Herbert West’s acts, though I know he doesn’t fit with the quiz’s theme at all so you do you.

Yes, I had trouble with this. I tried "Vittorio Emmanuel", checked google to see "Vittorio Emanuele", then finally landed on "Victor Emmanuel". I think both the previous spellings make sense, I've always gotten away with them before.
