Attila Quiz

Attila The Hun Quiz.

Gathering individuals of all sorts together under his ruthless banner, Attila became one of the most feared names in the pages of history. Few peoples could stand against the mighty onslaught of his forces and him. Even from his early days, the man showed an unusual aptitude which would go on to inspire his greatness in the art of conquest. So, it was only a matter of time until more and more of the map fell under the banner of his domain.

The more and more nations which rallied against Attila and his armies, the more and more nations fell before Attila and his armies. Even against a diverse assortment of foes, victory came to Attila as if it were predestined. Some of the greatest kingdoms and empires of the world in his time had no choice but to surrender to his superior tactical mind. Chaos may have ruled the world prior, but Attila took advantage of this disorder to sow the seeds of his empire. When he met his inevitable end, the reaches of his empire were so great that they harkened back to the mighty empire of Alexander himself.
