The world was preparing for the 21st century but clearly it hadn’t anticipated much of what was to come in the next two decades. Music took a few sharp left and right turns after what was a tumultuous 10 years in the 1980s. In many ways, the 1990s were an experiment in trying to get as far away from the eighties as society deemed possible.
There were many pop culture occurrences in the '90s that would go on to shape the world we enjoy today. World events also played a role in molding the society we now live in. If you think you know a lot about the '90s then you will want to challenge yourself in this quiz. From pop culture to historic events to simply peculiar things that happened in this decade, you'll need to know a lot about the 1990s to do well on this quiz.

You passed! Great job! The 90s were an interesting time and you clearly know quite a bit about this fun decade.
Yeah, but I didn’t know much about the American stuff. I’m a Brit.

You flunked! Perhaps you haven’t watched enough Fresh Prince of Bel-Air or listened to enough grunge music.
I couldn`t remember when it happened, but I do remember most of them, as I was in my 30`s.

How are you gonna have a quiz about the 90’s and not even mention the death of Kurt Cobain at all?🙄.

Wow, you got a perfect score! You must be a real 90s kid or perhaps you just know quite a bit about what was a very interesting decade!

4/15 Rubbish didn’t guess any of the dates right, mostly all American stuff don’t know these not fair if you not American.
You’re right. It’s not truly accurate if has just American bias.

The Forrest Gump answer is incorrect. The movie was released in 1994, but it won Best Picture at the 1995 Oscars.
Thanks for highlighting that. We’ve made the correction.
Thank you!

Also Forest Gump Won Best Picture In 1995 Not 1994
4/15. I know I was there because I made it to here. Seems it all just happened around me without my noticing it. Obviously not my best decade.
