Not really sure about the 9th question: 'When was the diet of Regensburg, at which Catholic Princes were persuaded to support the Pope and enforce the Edict of Worms?" and the answer being 1524, as i thought the Diet of Regensburg was in 1541? :S

Sorrry again, but i thought that the battle of Muhlberg was in 1547 not 1546? Just want to make suree :)
