Well, there are two questions I'd waffle on, because I do know quite a bit.
The first is the religion of Israel - it is the place where Christians and Muslims have their holy places, so I wouldn't say Judaism so readily.
The second is how many world wars there are - most would say two, but Churchill referred to the Seven Years' War as the first truly global war, followed by the American Revolution - which saw fighting outside the continent - and the War of 1812, which was related to the Napoleonic Wars. So I could say four or five and be quite accurate.

Kim Jong Un made you say that, don't he. Or are you living in France or Iran??? confusing maps. The Seven Years War was close to be a world war, but only because of the empires involved, so global war would be a better term. The American Revolution was a colonial war, never a world war and 1812 was more a Chevauchée than a war.
