2019 was the year before we were all grounded. It was the last year before any of us had to worry about social distancing, wearing a mask, or anything else associated with the global pandemic that would take hold the following year. Some of us didn’t even wash our hands all that much in 2019. That has all changed now. The world is very different presently than it was in 2019, even though it wasn’t really all that long ago.
This quiz will test your knowledge on a year that none of us realized at the time would be our final year of normalcy. Movie blockbusters came out one after another and we could watch them in the theaters. Then U.S. president Donald Trump actually made a trip to North Korea. It was also the year of protests that rocked multiple nations around the world.
Let’s see how well you remember this significant year before life as we knew it changed. We bet there were many important things that happened in 2019 that you have completely forgotten about. There is only one way to know for sure, and that’s by taking this quiz.
