Sure, having a grasp on historical events over the last 3,000 years doesn’t necessarily make a person smart. But it does mean they’re able to understand these highly referential – and often spicy – history memes. They touch on everything from the deviously genius Trojan Horse, to relatively more recent events, like the lovely years the globe was embroiled in WWII. Whatever your era of preference, we’re willing to bet these memes will tickle your cultured fancy. And if they don’t? Stick with the fresh memes.
