Got 92. All the 5th Rep ones, all but 4 of the 4th Rep. Those pre-WW2 I'm most embarrassed of having forgotten are Millerand, Tardieu, Broglie, Polignac, Doumergue, Flandin, Arago, Talleyrand (!!!), and a couple more. I really sucked with monarchy-era ones.

Combination of hangover and (more so) utter lack of knowledge of France. Only one I can name is Chirac. Does that make me a bad person?

Got 145 and all since 1913. Got also all under Restauration but missed many of the July Monarchy. Quite ashamed to be able to remember non entities likes François-Marsal and Sarrien (thanks to Clemenceau's portrait of him: 'Sarrien, ça rien') but to forgot Caillaux, Barthou, Arago and Bourgeois. To be fair, there was some I only remember from trivia facts. My favorite one is about Dupuy; each time he became prime minister, the president died/resigned.

Wow, that's quite impressive!

I don't have an account, I just play the game and mark my score. Tongue

I am not even going to try this one. I know DeGaulle was PM for a few months in 1958, but otherwise, I don't know any. I could name most French Presidents from 1945 onward, I think.

29. I forgot Rocard, Barre, Chaban-Delmas! And knew Pflimlin, but was never able to spell it.
