1. Cleopatra VII
2. Stalin
3. I will pick Christopher Columbus. However, I think the right answer is John Cabot (not one of the choices

)
4. England & France
5. New Zealand

Chris Columbus was the first European to discover America in 1492 but didn't reach the Americas, John Cabot did actually land in America in 1497.
