Title: Brits.... how come it seems like there are two Winston Chuchhill's?
Post by: TraceOneInfinite Flat Earther 96' on October 17, 2007, 08:12:01 PM
Okay, I don't know much about British prime ministers, but for some reason it seemed like when I was reading about the Ottoman Empires involvement in World War 1, I remember seeing the name Winston Churchhill.... but wasn't that the name of the British prime minister in World War 2.

Anyway, can one of you Brits set me straight.

#1.  Who was British prime minister in World War 1?

#2.  Who was British prime minister in World War 2?

#3.  Why am I confused over Winston Churchhill?
