Kazzerland was correct with 1931. Primus, on the other hand, must have been huffing kittens again because 1954 was way out.

I don't know who the father of Charlemagne was, but his grandfather was Charles Martel (the Hammer) who has already featured in the thread. And I think Kazzerland is the great (etc) grandson of Genghis Kahn.

Charlemange's father was, according to the Dutch history books, Pepijn

Archaix you were right with Pippin and no I'm not the great, great, etc. grandson of Ghankis Kan. Since someone got the question right I'll just tell you the answer to the bonus. My great, great, etc. grandfather was..........*drum roll*............. CHARLEMAGNE!!!!!!! ;D

wow. You must be somewhat related to Christopher Lee then, as he is also a descendant of Charlemagne ;D
It kind of frustrates me though, that I get a question wrong just because the subject has a different name in another language

No, you get the point because I figured out it was Pipin from you posting 'Pipijn'. I just remembered something I read about him...I think it's in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicles.

Here's the question- what was the war where an Asian nation scored a decisive victory against a Western power? Note, this was the first time that such a thing happened. (Hint: it's about 100 years ago)
