Solid Effort!
Not bad at all—you got a strong mix of answers right and proved you've got a solid grip on general knowledge. A few questions might’ve tripped you up, but that’s part of the fun. You're curious, switched on, and probably just one or two Google deep-dives away from top-tier status. Keep playing, keep learning, and next time, you’ll crush it. Nice job!

You're a trivia machine! Whether it’s ancient history, exotic animals, or the chemical elements, you nailed it.
