Shall we get on with the next question. I would rather like to get to ask one myself before I go to sleep."The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists."

-Crap... we didn't get that far in classWhat triggered the english civil war in 1135 following the death of Henry I?

That would be cheating, now wouldn't it?
But most civil wars in those days were caused by some sort of battle over who would succeed the king. Hmm... Henry didn't happen to die childless, did he?"The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists."

Ah excellent. Now this question is meant not to be discovered with google (or I don't know I haven't tried yet).
As the Roman empire in the west fell, its control over several provinces passed back into the hands of those who held them before the Romans came in; however, later barbarians would overwhelm all of these. What was the leader or last region to be controlled by the original pre-Roman peoples who lived there and in what century was it lost to barbarians or the descendents thereof?"The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists."

Just to clarify, I think it only took Henry's son. His daughter Mathilda was still alive, and she and her son fought King Stephen, Henry's nephew, for many years.Comment
