About This Quiz
Do you love dreaming of worlds that have come before your own? Do you read all about different periods in history and envy those who got the chance to live through great periods of innovation and enlightenment? There's a chance that you did, too, and you don't even know about it! If you're the kind of the person who dreams of eras of creation and art and invention, if you wish you had the chance to meet Leonardo Da Vinci and the great Greek philosophers, if you think times were better before everyone had a computer in their pocket and constant connectivity to clouds and devices, then this may be the quiz for you.ÂÂ
Who were you in a past life? Do you imagine discovering new worlds that no one had ever explored before? Do you make up stories about taking down governments or inventing new ways of thinking? From Ancient Greece to Enlightenment France, from Revolutionary War America to the building of the great pyramids in Egypt, there are many unique and exciting eras to want to visit -- or better yet, be a part of. Find out which era you might have lived through, and don't forget to invite your friends to hop into your time machine.ÂÂ
