Why put history in order?
Most history quizzes ask you to remember a date. The Daily Guessr asks something easier and more interesting: which came first? You rarely know the exact year a canal opened or a treaty was signed, but you usually know roughly when, and that’s enough to play. The scoring rewards good instincts: getting 1066 and 2001 the wrong way round costs far more than swapping two events a couple of years apart. Read the full rules.
