Test your general knowledge also with older quizzes
First, let’s look far to the east and find out what the Japanese people call their country in their native language. The meaning of the word is “sunrise country”, which is due to Japan’s geographical location in the east of Asia. It is one of the first countries to see the sunrise. In Japanese culture, the country is therefore often referred to as the “Land of the Rising Sun”.
We are also looking for a word that describes a knightly duel with a lance on horseback. It was a popular competition in the Middle Ages and was often held as part of festivals or tournaments. It was less about actual combat and more about skill and sporting competition.
The next question in the daily quiz of January 19, 2026 also fits in with this theme: Who wrote the historical adventure novel “The Three Musketeers” (1844)? The author you are looking for is one of the most important French writers of the 19th century and has left a lasting mark on world literature with his works. His novels are characterized by adventure, intrigue, love and historical backgrounds and are still popular and widely read today, and have been made into films countless times.
We have more quiz questions for you to make sure you actually start the quiz: What is the name of a job performed by a catering specialist for customers? What is the playwright and author Brecht’s first name? Where actually sleep bats? In a nest? And further more…
