2. 1) The first known "international" recognition of commanders'
obligation to act lawfully occurred in 1474. Peter von Hagenbach,
who offered the defense that "he was just following orders", was tried
by an tribunal of the Holy Roman Empire, found guilty of war crimes,
and beheaded.
Three Australian officers met the same fate post the 2nd Boer war,
most of whose defense was that they had orders issued by Lord
Kitchener to "take no prisoners".
What adjective did such a defense in a court of law earn post
mid-1900s?

American Expeditionary Force of WW1 required them for easy
identification of squadrons.
WWII was where it truly became a beloved tradition, giving crews
an opportunity to express their individuality from the otherwise
uniformity of the military .The USAAF used well-paid professionals
for the work.

it still exists, it is much more SFW, gender-neutral and patriotically
focused. What is being talked about?

7. Nose art

aircraft

herself to death at the age of 16. The state of Udaipur, from where
she belong, sought help of the British to end the rift, and within a

12. 6) Attached alongside is
a part of the lyrics of a
ballad released by a
comedy duo about their
obsession with the X.
Give X.
My life is so successful
I've got everything a man could ever need
Got a 1000 dollar haircut
And I even have a talkshow on TV
And I know I should be happy but instead
There's a question I can't get out of my head
What's the meaning of X?
It's killing me that no one knows
Why it was built 5000 years ago
Why did they build the X?
How could they raise the ____ so high
Completely without the technology we have today?

13. Stonehenge

14. 7) Here is a excerpt from a reddit comment :
X was 26 years old when this picture was taken. The girl he was in love with was
Jewish, who he would marry and have two children with. He joined the Nazi party in
1935 in the hopes it would help him gain employment, something many Germans
did at the height of the depression. That same year the Nuremberg Laws forbade his
relationship and he was expelled from the party. His refusal to leave his wife
eventuated in him being imprisoned and eventually drafted to a batallion where he
died in the Eastern Front in 1944. The wife was predictably sent to the concentration
camps in 1938. She was present in a number of them, with letters showing that she
was alive until 1941. She was eventually sent to the womens camp at Ravensbruck
and gassed in 1942.
Why has X been immortalised in history as a badass?

15. August Landmasser, the
man who refused the Nazi
salute

16. 8) The American winemakers were in a dilemma when the Prohibition went
into effect in Jan, 1920. While some tore up their vineyards as soon as the
law was passed, others could not risk searching for other profits only to see
the law overturned a few years later, as it would take up to 10 years to
produce the kind of quality fruit that they were currently producing.
However, the law allowed the grape-owners to sell their juice in the form of
"bricks" for non-alcoholic consumption, as long as they gave clear warnings
that converting it into alcohol was illegal.
With these loopholes in place, what ingenious idea did the vineyards
came up with, to continue making money by enabling people to continue
their alcohol consumption ?

17. The bricks had specific instructions
on how NOT to make wine, enabling
people to make their own wine

18. 9) The surname Y of XY is said to have originated in the 1602 play "The
Merry Wives of Windsor". Instead of using, “What the devil?” as a
profanity, shakespeare used , “What the Y?” instead, which according to
the OED, was the first use of the word Y.
XY too is known to be generous inventor of english vocabulary.
While not a completely a new word, he/she turned the verb Z into a noun
in the phrase “on the Z”. To “be on the Z” is to “behave violently and
destructively.”
Give Y and Z.

19. Dickens
Rampage

20. 10) A famous symbol of a milestone voyage, it has now lost its visual
features due to peculiar atmosphere and radiation.
This fact has been memefied by the internet, with people saying that
the entity now actually belongs to the country X (a reference to a
popular running joke owing to a bad run they had in the early 1940's) ,
and that X can now claim the place to be its property.
What entity? Also X?

22. 11) The two nations X and Y have been troubled by confusion about their
identities ever since their creation.
In the 2017 Ice Hockey World Championship, the angry X team was forced to
drown out Y's anthem with boos and sighs.
George W Bush famously once talked about his meeting with X's foreign
minister - a meeting which never happened. Similar incident happened with
the Italian PM in 2003.
A quick search on Google will pop-out scores of tweets about a former US
First Lady's X-ian heritage - which doesn't exist.
Just give X and Y.

23. X= slovakia, Y=slovenia

24. 12) Because of its iconic status, X has been a popular location for this purpose. Since
the first in April 1931, more than 30 people have successfully attempted the 'feat'.
The most notorious of the lot happened in may 1947. The after-photo of which
( described by TIME as "technically rich, visually compelling and ... downright
beautiful" thus earning it a popular sobriquet) has been recreated by the likes of
Warhol and Taylor Swift (attached).
What sobriquet?
It has also been compared to
another equally iconic photo
captured by an American journalist
on a busy southeast Asian street
16 years later.
Which photo/incident?

25. Evelyn Mchale

Thích Quảng Đứck

26. 13) In Roman naming practice, a newborn was given three names. The third
name was the cognomen, that distinguished one branch of a gens from
another. So famous was the cognomen A that it found its way into all
European languages.
B, directly derived from A, was used by the Holy Roman Emperors, to reflect
their supposed heritage. Although the HRE was dissolved in 1806, the title was
retained by the House of Hapsburg.
Imperial rulers, who found themselves as guardians of the Orthodox church
after the fall of the Roman empire 1453, wanted a prestigious title for
themselves. Thus, the title C was born, which implied a claim to be on the
same level as A.
Give A,B and C, in order.

27. Caesar Kaiser Tsar/czar

28. 14) X made an everlasting tribute to Y through a 'colored' sequence in his
1993 masterpiece. It was a reference to the latter's work from the 60's
which received tremendous public disapproval including some calling him
a race traitor.
Through an interesting turn of events, X found out in 2007 that another
work of Y that he bought in an 1989 auction was actually a stolen item and
was on a government organization's art crime wanted list.
Intrigued by the events, a news website ran a story titled "From
____10_____ __4__ to __3__ __4__" , the first two blanks being X's 1993 work
and the next two a reference to the organization involved in the second
paragraph.
Give Y and the story title.

30. 15) On the forefront of Kenosha's 2020 protests was the organization X, a staunch advocate
of the BLM movement and of armed resistance against fascism, often criticized for rioting
and looting.
Y, on the another hand, is another US youth group founded in 2016 and often supported by
Trump. They insist they are a fraternal group spreading "anti political correctness" agenda.
They too have often been criticized for political violence.
Anthony Huber (allegedly belonging to X) hit Kyle Rittenhouse (allegedly from Y) repeatedly
with a weapon (visible on the left pic) after a confrontation broke out during the protests.
Huber was then shot dead by kyle.
The disparity in the types of weapon used by the two men (pictures on the next slide) gave
rise to a idiom/meme (now used mostly by pro-gun netizens) which is a corruption from
another similar idiom which is used as a taunt after the better-prepared character triumphs
over the ill-prepared character.
Give X,Y and the idiom that arose.

32. X= antifa (from anti-fascist action)
Y= Proud Boys
Dont bring a skateboard to a
gunfight

33. 16) Although primarily known for his contribution to another popular
structure from the1800s, X was also the second designer of the internal
elements of Y.
The chief designer of Y was mesmerized with the ancient architecture and
sculpture of a certain country Middle Eastern country. So, he decided to
build Y to commemorate the opening of a certain project in that country.
However, the ruler of the middle eastern country was trapped in a fiscal
crisis and had to leave the country, extinguishing all hopes for the
aforementioned Y.
Give X, Y and the project mentioned in the second paragraph.

34. X= Gustav Eiffel
Y= statue of Liberty
Suez canal

35. 17) From "No Russian" to dead children, the Call of Duty franchise has
flirted with controversies several times.
i) In 2009, InfinityWard, the developers of the MW series released a video
titled "Fight Against Grenade Spam". Apart from the use of profanities
like calling grenade spammers "pussies", why was it deemed offensive
towards a certain demography and later removed from the tube?
ii) CoD Black Ops, Set against the backdrop of the Cold War, was released a
year later. However, severe criticism was directed at one of its missions in
particular, with one state-run website stating "What the US could not achieve
in 50 years they are now trying virtually".
What was this mission all about?

40. 19) It is 1916 in war-torn Europe. Expecting quick victory, half the British
population rushes to cinemas to watch the first ever live war documentary, the
Battle of the Somme. On ground zero, one British regiment even kicks footballs
painted " The Great Euro Cup" towards the enemy to kick-start the first day of
business.
However, of the 120,000 that stepped in, 20,000 were killed on Day 1. Marking
the bloodiest day in the history of the British army.
Y, on the opposite side of the trench and allowed to serve by the authorities due
to an "administrative error" resulting from chaotic recruitment, described the
ensuing 5 month long attrition of heat and death as "more like hell than war".
Give the significance of the Battle of the Somme in the history of modern
warfare and the "administrative error" pertaining to Y.

41. first ever use of tanks
Hitler fled to Munich to avoid conscription
into the mixed-racial Austrian Army.
According to a 1924 report by the Bavarian
authorities, allowing Hitler to serve was
almost certainly an administrative error,
since as an Austrian citizen, he should
have been returned to Austria. ~ wiki

Dead" to top the charts. BBC refused to play the song even after it reached number two in the chart.
A sporting legend from the country B received tremendous notoriety following an incident 8000 KM up
north in the mid 80's in a certain "Aztec Stadium".
The term "Aztec", was a subject of contention in the 60's between two brands C and D, regarding who
gets to name their product as such. After C won the legal battle, D renamed their product as E, a
reference to the Spanish Conquest of 1519-1521 and thus an 'in-your-face' reply to C. D went on to
become the largest brand in the business in the upcoming decades overtaking C.
The world cup where the sporting legend mentioned above made his debut featured a match between
West Germany and Austria. A win by 1 or 2 goals for West Germany would result in both the teams
qualifying at the expense of Algeria. West Germany took the lead after 10 mins, and the remaining 80
mins were marked by very few scoring attempts on either side. Thus, both the teams faced serious
allegations of match-fixing. The event is known as 'Disgrace of Gijón', 'Non-aggression pact of Gizón'
and also F (german term), a reference to the pre WW2 political union between the two countries.
