and should be interpreted accordingly.
On each question you may give up to two answers, but if you give
both a right answer and a wrong answer, there is a small penalty.
Please post all your answers in a single followup to the newsgroup,
based only on your own knowledge. (In your answer posting, quote
the questions and place your answer below each one.) I will reveal
the correct answers in about 3 days. For further information see
my 2010-11-16 companion posting on "Five Guys Named Moe Questions
from the Canadian Inquisition (QFTCI5GNM)".
All questions were written by members of Five Guys Named Moe,
and are used here by permission, but have been reformatted and
may have been retyped and/or edited by me. (This also applies
to the last question set of Game 9, where I accidentally omitted
this paragraph.)

> * Game 10, Round 3 - History - The Road to World War II
This was the hardest round in the original game.
> World War II began on September 1, 1939, when the Nazis invaded
> Poland, but there were many signposts along the way to tell the
> world what was coming.
> 1. Neville Chamberlain takes all the flak for the signing of
> the Munich Pact, but what other Allied leader also signed it?
French premier Édouard Daladier. 3 for Joshua.
> 2. In July 1936, when the Spanish Civil War broke out, General
> Franco was rebelling against which duly elected president
> of the Second Spanish Republic?
Manuel Azana.
> 3. During September 1931, the Imperial Japanese army invaded
> which Chinese state?
Manchuria (or Manchukuo or Manchu State). 4 for Joshua, Dan Blum,
Peter, Erland, Dan Tilque, Pete, Stephen, Jeff, and Rob.
> 4. In October of 1935, what nation was invaded by Italy?
Abyssinia (now Ethiopia, which was acceptable). 4 for Joshua,
Dan Blum, Erland, Dan Tilque, Pete, Stephen, Jeff, and Rob.
2 for Calvin.
> 5. Who was chancellor of Germany prior to Hitler and served as
> his first vice-chancellor in 1933 and 1934?
Franz Von Papen. (Hindenburg was president, never chancellor.)
> 6. What were the anti-Semitic laws passed by the Nazis in
> 1935 called?
The Nuremberg Laws. "Judengesetz" is a less specific term and
I scored it as almost correct. 4 for Joshua, Marc, and Stephen.
3 for Dan Tilque.
> 7. In 1933 the Nazis established the first concentration camp.
> Which one?
Dachau. 4 for Marc, Pete, Stephen, and Rob. 2 for Dan Blum.
Yes, the question wording should have allowed for the fact that the
term "concentration camp" was previously used by others; indeed,
the Nazis' usage of it may reasonably be considered a euphemism.
> 8. Name the paramilitary group that was instrumental in
> Mussolini's rise to power in Italy.
The Squadristi or Blackshirts. 4 for Joshua, Dan Blum, Peter, Marc,
Stephen, and Rob.
> 9. What event was triggered by the assassination of German
> diplomat Ernst vom Rath by Herschel Grynszpan, a German-born
> Polish Jew, in Paris, France?
Kristallnacht (the Night of Broken Glass). I also accepted the
literal translation "Crystal Night". 4 for Joshua, Erland, Marc,
Dan Tilque, Pete, and Stephen.
> 10. Hitler's initial attempt to take power in Germany is
> generally known as what?
Beer hall putsch (accepting Munich putsch). 4 for Joshua, Calvin,
Dan Blum, Marc, Pete, Stephen, and Jeff. 3 for Dan Tilque, who
might like to look up the word he used.
