Some were easy questions, some were hard. Tried to make a mix of questions.
The 30 were (didn't write down sudden death ones I came up with)

1. Name the 3 most deadly wars in World History in terms of casualties. – WW2, WW1, 30 yrs war

China had a bunch of revolts and revolutions that would knock the 30 year war and even possibly WW1 out of the top 3. Depending on where you place Japan's military actions (most Europeans see WW2 starting in 1939, most Americans see WW2 starting 1941), the Sino-Japanese waw(s) could also challenge.

4. What running back averaged over 10 touchdowns and 1500 yards for each of his 10 seasons in the NFL, making the pro bowl every year. – Barry Sanders.

Barry averaged over 1500 rushing yards, but not over 10 rushing touchdowns. When you include his receiving yards/TDs, the numbers jump up to over 1800 yards and nearly 11 TDs a year.

5. What is the country with the largest land area in Western Europe – France – 633 square k.

The Kingdom of Denmark claims Greenland counts and respectfully disagrees.



9. What Dutch Explorer first “discovered” Australia – Dirk Hartog

How did you decide on him instead of Willem Janszoon?

11. Name the American city commonly referred to as “The Mistake on the Lake” –

For God's sakes Lemon, we'd all like to flee to the Cleve and club up at the Flats and have lunch with Little Richard


26. What is the name of the hottest pepper in the world? Either scientific or nickname – Ghost Pepper

Don't tell that to the Trinidad Moruga Scorpian


30. What language is spoken by more people than any other language in the world?
Mandarin>English for native speakers, but if you change this to some standard of fluency, English>Standard Chinese.

Fixed your answers, HTH.
