I'll give it a last try to keep the memory to these games up. Maybe they found a more interesting replacement with the "Who am I" and "Guess the place" games. Robin Hood - English mythological character with a historical background (in late 12th / early 13th century). According to the legend an outlaw who took from the rich to give to the poor. |

^I only saw that movie once a few months ago, so I must of forgotten the name pretty quick. Anne Frank-a Polish Jewish girl who died in the Holocaust just a few weeks before her camp was liberated. Her famous diaries were recovered by her father a few years after the war. |

^ I've been to the Anne Frank house in Amsterdam, and I have read a lot about her and her families fate. It is so horrible that, with all it's horror, it was but one out of millions of fates determined by the most horrible crime. Kirk Douglas - the famous actor mentioned above for playing Spartacus. |

Sam Neill- actor who starred as the legendary wizard Merlin in a NBC miniseries BTW Malte, Stanton was the answer to the question you posed in the Great Valley forum. Stanton was a radical Replublican, and a holdover from the Lincoln administration. When Johnson tried to fire him, the radical Republicans impeached him.Ludendorff left the Nazis in 1925, after the party had thrown its support to Hindenburg. Nick |

^ Yes, Edwin McMasters Stanton was the one I was refering to. Maybe I should start an American history quiz over here? Lewis Wallace - American author who is especially known for his novel "Ben Hur". |

^Matthew Brady - very famous American 19th century photographer. Most of the famous photos from 19th century America were made by him or his assistants. (The only thing I'm worried about is, that other people may not be too interested in these history threads, so it may be misinterpreted as some attempt to brag with knowledge, which is not my intention.) |

^ Sorry, that name has a nasty ending letter. With Yuri Gagarin and most Chinese and Japanese emperors having been named before I think it is perfectly fine if you go for the d (last but one letter) for the next person. |
