Cool, a new game. Can we look the answers up? I'm also guess that the one who gets the correct answer has to ask another.

We will be trying to stump each other so I guess you could try to look them up.

A throwing axe call the francisca or francesca was a weapon used by the Franks in the early middle ages. Some historians see a relationship between this weapon and the name of the country we know today as France. link

I did not look this up yet because it seems like something I should know. Is it a tapestry like the battle of Hastings?
