Gutted to hear about the passing of Chris Wickham, whose work really pushed me in direction of the Middle Ages when I first started studying history. Memory Eternal!

@AntigoneJournal Do we know roughly how much you needed to have correct to make it into the first hundred?

Who is making maps like this? Autists whose special interest is liquorice?
