I was an English queen (1702-14). I gave my name to a delightful style of furniture.

Anne. The style is simple and elegant. A cabriole leg replaced the square one, the surfaces were left plain to highlight the carving. Shells were a favourite design in the carving. Today, Queen Anne furniture is highly collectible and the design is the most widely reproduced in the US.

I was married at fourteen to the future King of France.

Catherine de Medici. Talk about being well connected! Catherine was the daughter of Lorenzo de Medici, niece of Pope Clement VII, wife of one king and mother of three. She was also mother-in-law to Mary, Queen of Scots. If that was not enough, she became regent at 40 to Charles IX and dominated French politics for the next 20 years.

I died with my beloved wife in Ekaterinburg in 1918.

Nicholas. Early in 1913, Nicholas celebrated the tercentenary of Romanov rule. At Easter, he commissioned a special egg from Faberge. Gold, faced with enamel, embossed with eagles, crowns and wreaths with 18 miniature portraits of Romanov rulers. Each portrait was surrounded by rose cut diamonds. Ah, the romance of it, all I get is chocolate!

I lost my head in Paris on 21 Jan 1793.

Louis XVI. I was charged with treason under the name Louis Capet. I was found guilty and sent to the guillotine. My wife was executed later that year and my son, the dauphin, died in prison. He was ten.

I was the Inca emperor who encountered Pizzaro.

Atahualpa. My empire stretched down the coast of South America for 2,500 miles, from modern Ecuador to Chile. I was killed in spite of a huge ransom being paid. Treachery, cruelty and superior weapons crushed my people after a forty five year struggle.

I succeeded to the Chrysanthemum Throne in 1926.

Hirohito. I took the official name 'Showa' which means 'enlightened peace'. However, my country was involved in two wars and suffered greatly. Yet, I lived to see Japan recover and transform into an economic super-power.

My name is Boadicea or Boudicca. What tribe did I lead against the Romans?

Iceni. I was a great warrior. When my husband died, the Romans scourged me and raped my two daughters. I proved myself a very capable leader. I burned the Roman towns in Britain and came close to driving them out completely. There is a fine statue of me in my chariot outside the modern Houses of Parliament in London.

I have a monument to celebrate the unification of Italy in 1861.

Victor Emanuel II. It is a huge monument, made of white marble, and is nicknamed the typewriter and the wedding cake.

I am King Hussein, I died in 1999 after ruling which Middle Eastern country for 47 years.

Jordan. The Hashemite kingdom of Transjordan was made a British protectorate after WW1 and became independent in 1946. King Hussein survived assassination attempts, plots and the mayhem of Middle Eastern politics for 47 years and was succeeded by his son.

I was a president before I was a king and I abdicated in 1946.

King Zog. I was President from 1925-28 and then King until I was ousted by Mussolini just before WW2. I was not invited to return after that war because Albania became a Communist country.
