Comments on the clue
1.Different, nice use of 'being' – I had to check that fact and it's true!
2.A little obvious and rather long (though apparently true!)
3.Merit for being factually correct; problem is this just reads like a sentence and not a clue to which an answer is required
4.I like the history lesson!
