THE PRESIDENT OF the United States of America. It has become arguably the most powerful elected position in the world.
Imagine you reached that role. It’s the most significant achievement of your entire life, and one that just a few dozen other people managed.
However, also imagine that, over time, you fade from most popular pages of the history books, and before you know it, the first time some people read your name is in a Saturday night quiz on TheJournal.ie.
Let’s meet those very men!

@James Fox: Scandinavian version of ice hockey.
@James Fox: something the author of this quiz has had to much of
@kevin mc cormack: class kev.
@Kevin O’Brien: it’s more like field hockey on ice.
@Kevin O’Brien: it’s not a scandinavian version of ice hockey as ice hockey is played jn Scandinavia. It’s a cross between ice and field hockey. Popular in Scandinavia and Russia and strangely enough, Mongolia. It was ‘started’ in England in the 18th century and in the late 1800′s football clubs used it as a way to train and have fun in the winter.
@Jason Byrne: Maybe not strange given Ulaanbaatar is the coldest capital city in the world…

In the 17th century, Dutch growers cultivated orange carrots as a tribute to William of Orange – who led the the struggle for Dutch independence – and the color stuck. A thousand years of yellow, white and purple carrot history was wiped out in a generation.
@Sean: Those apple b*****ds!

How about doing real journalism and investigating why the government are keen to seal archives for 30 years..the colour orange who gives a f_(k

Carrots were originally purple, until genetically modified by the dutch and british, as purple was seen as a royal colour
