    This quiz is more for people who obsessively remember the dates of things.

    I thought this quiz would be great for me as I love the game "Timeline" when you have to guess when various inventions/events took place. However, the information in this quiz is inaccurate, and is driving me bonkers. . . . The first commercially produce toilet paper was produced in the 1850s. However, it was not a toilet roll, it was individual sheets of medicated paper. It wasn't until 40 years later that a toilet ROLL was produced, made of a continuous, perforated roll of toilet tissue.

    "the invention of 5G" answer is wrong. "5G was developed in the 3GPP standardisation body. Its work on 5G began in 2015, with the first specification released in 2017." Source: https://5gobservatory.eu/about/what-is-5g .... The answer given was "2019". That was the date 5G started being deployed, not the date of its invention.
