Chrome Moxen, please only answer one question at a time. Due to your ignorance of the rules, you only get 1 point and question number 2 is still free, so somebody just post Philadelphia.
Gah, answer at the same time! Both get points! Why am I shouting!
Its alright Moxen, just dont let if happen again, or else.:tongue2:
Well, I always wanted to start a trivia thread, so I decided to rip off PianoRock's thread from News.
Rules
Heres how it goes, I post 3 questions, each worth a different amount of points: 1, 2, and 3, respectively. There is also a bonus point to anyone who can guess the connection between the three answers. You can only answer 1 question at a time plus the bonus question and you can only make one correct answer per set. If by the time I post a new set the bonus question is still in limbo, it goes away...forever.
2. Sicily was controlled by the Austrians, but the "rescued" by the Bourbons of Spain. Later the bourbons gave Sicily to Spain. (Pretty sure that the answer is Bourbons of Spain, but added in the Austrians for detail!)

Thanks to Legacy15 and Butteblues18 for the Sig and Avatar!
Dear God, its utter madness! I need to address several things here.
Uncle Istvun was right, they all have to deal with the Carthage/Punic Wars. Im sorry I made the questions so general.
That said, Jon gets 1 point, obviously. Carthage was the answer I was looking for the 3 pointer, but I looked up Extremeicon's answer and Thugga was once the city around the area of Tunis, so both of you are getting points. No one got number 2 and the key point is who controlled it and then lost it to Italy and of course it has to do with the other two questions, so now I guess the answer is pretty obvious.
Once again, I apologize for making the questions general, I hope no one was confused.

Gah, *smacks self on head* I didnt realize it, but there were two possible bonus answers. Hooray for double bonuses! :dance2: Musashi: while Urzas does look like the artifact block, Wizards indeed made an official statement that it was intended to be the enchantment block.
